Helpful Score: 1
Sedaris has a wacky sense of humor and is a master of wordology...I loved all of the essays I heard previously (am listening to them one at a time on audio) but this collection was far less appealing. Written in his earlier days, he 'invents' autobiography, naming his sisters "Faith, Hope and Charity" just for the irony...Seems like he is trying too hard to be funny. When measured against his later, much more wonderful work, it just falls flat. Still, he's a genius who's unafraid to test the limits of creativity. If that appeals to you, go for it!
