This past Christmas my wife got a pair of tickets to see David Sedaris from her mother. She has seen him before, I had not - although I have read most of his books. Hearing writers read their own material is a treat most times but Sedaris is the king. His comedic timing and cutting wit are unmatched. When I was touring the country in my Dodge Caravan with a rock band the only audiobooks we listened to were David Sedaris stories. For hours we would howl as he spun tales, one after another. Last night we settled in at the historic Virginia Theatre and let him dazzle us. Here's a clip from him reading at the Village Voice a few years back. Enjoy.
