If you've ever laughed your way through David Sedaris's cheerfully misanthropic stories, you might think you know what you're getting with Calypso. You'd be wrong. When he buys a beach house on the Carolina coast, Sedaris envisions long, relaxing vacations spent playing board games and lounging in the sun with those he loves most. And life at the Sea Section, as he names the vacation home, is exactly as idyllic as he imagined, except for one tiny, vexing realization: it's impossible to take a vacation from yourself. With Calypso, Sedaris sets his formidable powers of observation toward middle age and mortality. Make no mistake: these stories are very, very funny - it's a book that can make you laugh 'til you snort, the way only family can. Sedaris's writing has never been sharper, and his ability to shock readers into laughter unparalleled. But much of the comedy here is born out of that vertiginous moment when your own body betrays you and you realize that the story of your life is made up of more past than future. This is beach reading for people who detest beaches, required reading for those who loathe small talk and love a good tumour joke. Calypso is simultaneously Sedaris's darkest and warmest book yet - and it just might be his very best.

评分这是我读/听的第三本David Sedaris (大卫.塞达里斯)的书,也是我认为最好听的一本,赛达里斯自己朗读。他的作品不知该怎么归类,维基百科认为他是散文作家,他的作品都是他自己的生活记录,他父母姐妹伴侣都在书里。我读他的第一本是Me Talk Pretty One Day,觉得他挺混的,但现在不这么看,尤其在听完这本书之后。我觉得他最显著的能力,是把生活中的琐碎事儿,我们每一个人都做的却从来没有注意到的事,用幽默,自嘲的方式讲出来;但讲出来并不是他的目的,他让我们看到芝麻蒜皮小事中的喜悦和悲怆。看/听他的书,我不时想到漫画作家Alison Bechdel的回忆录Fun Home,他们用不同的形式讲述同样的故事 -- 生命中的欢乐和悲哀。从这个意义上看,他的书并不浅。
评分经由Amy Sedaris 想看看她哥David Sedaris的风格 对书名Calypso好奇 除了海滩小屋或许有联系 也没能确证这个reference是如何建立的 说不上不喜欢这个文风 但有时候感觉他口吻略微刻薄 总体是幽默的日常琐事随想 北卡相关有点亲切!
