I wish this book was twice as long. Three times as long. A perfect book to read when one is sick to death of the news. Sick to death of our current president. Sick to death of politics.

A great blend of the poignant and the absurd. And absurdly poignant. Laugh out loud funny. Recommended when one wants to escape into something easy going and lighthearted, but at the same time, never shallow. I've read a few books by David Sedaris at this point and I think I'll read them all because they are the perfect antidote to our current time.
