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.
還記得幾年前第一次讀Sedaris覺得他的幽默格外犀利,畢竟那時候還沒讀過David Foster Wallace,優秀的beach read,也挺適閤在公園長凳上坐一下午一口氣讀完,算是兩本fiction之間的palette cleanser吧!
評分The latest book by David Sedaris is a delight as always. Even though it’s about sensitive topics such as aging, love and spirituality, there are still some serious laughing-out-loud moments. He can write about anything and there is always a sense of familiarity to his stories. David Sedaris is the comfort food you go for when you are homesick.

評分(驚呼:原來你是Princess Carolyn的哥哥!)"Pocket gay" 自己念的有聲書,跟聽現場stand up似的。總體寫得很有趣,最後那邊講每個國傢的罵人真的是笑尿瞭,真實性未知,但是真的太好笑瞭哈哈哈哈
評分經由Amy Sedaris 想看看她哥David Sedaris的風格 對書名Calypso好奇 除瞭海灘小屋或許有聯係 也沒能確證這個reference是如何建立的 說不上不喜歡這個文風 但有時候感覺他口吻略微刻薄 總體是幽默的日常瑣事隨想 北卡相關有點親切!
