具體描述
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family and life, odd but sweet
评分沒有想象的有趣
评分我覺得很有意思哎，一個老年gay對傢人的碎碎念。感覺他和siblings的感情好好啊，總是在beach house一起八卦。也有很多很傷感沉重的話題，但似乎都被他講得很輕鬆。也有很多笑話，就是那種年紀大瞭可以想說啥說啥的感覺。有聲書裏麵穿插著幾個脫口秀，也挺好玩的。
