David Sedaris made his comic debut recounting his strange-but-true experiences of his job as a Macy’s elf clad in green tights, reading his “SantaLand Diaries” on National Public Radio’s Morning Edition. His sardonic wit and incisive social critique have since made him one of America’s pre-eminent humor writers. The great skill with which Sedaris slices through cultural euphemisms and political correctness proves that he is a master of satire and one of the most observant writers addressing the human condition today.
Sedaris writes for the New Yorker and is the author of "Me Talk Pretty One Day" and "Dress Your Family in Curduory and Denim"
A recent transplant to Paris, humorist David Sedaris, bestselling author of "Naked", presents a collection of his strongest work yet, including the title story about his hilarious attempt to learn French. A number one national bestseller now in paperback.

评分上语文课的时候,文人墨客们规定了好的生活,说要正心修身,成为高尚。正要拜倒在各种高深莫测看来道理十足的社会学理论下时,才发现马斯洛也指向了好的生活,人们无意识地觉得金字塔顶层的生活就是好生活。社会上,朋友家人媒体也都假设着一种好生活。于是生活中有了形形色色...
评分我琢磨了半天怎么定义这文类,大概就是所谓的“幽默小品文”吧?这书比较适合在米国,尤其是纽约住过一段时间的人,或者比较了解美国文化的人看。我虽然在纽约呆了这么几年,看的时候还是没有米国同事笑得那么爽。 文字很不错,而且文章短小轻松,非常适合地铁阅读。唯一不足...
因为正在自学法语,所以第二部分在巴黎的那一段常有同感。 比如永远纠结的“性数”,who is in charge of distributing the gender to everything? this is a question.
