Book Review of Barrel Fever: Stories and Essays

Barrel Fever: Stories and Essays
reviewed on + 23 more book reviews


I ordered this book because of its author and didn't bother to read the description, so I didn't know that most of the stories were fictional pieces. I tried reading the essays, but ended up skipping over them to get to David's "real stories". With a childhood like Sedaris's, who needs to write fiction?
