When You are Engulfed in Flames by David Sedaris



When You are Engulfed in Flames by David SedarisWhen You are Engulfed in Flames
Author: David Sedaris
Format: Softcover



Description:
David Sedaris's remarkable ability to uncover the hilarious absurdity teeming just below the surface of everyday life is elevated to wilder and more entertaining heights than ever in this new book of stories. Sedaris proceeds from bizarre conundrums of daily life, the etiquette of having a lozenge fall from your mouth into the lap of a fellow passenger or how to soundproof your windows with LP covers against neurotic songbirds to the most deeply resonant human truths.

Taking in the parasitic worm that once lived in his mother-in-law's leg, an encounter with a dingo and the purchase of a human skeleton, and culminating in a brilliant account of his attempt to quit smoking in Tokyo David Sedaris's sixth story collection is a fresh masterpiece of comic writing.
