Calypso by David Sedaris 259 pages
The most recent of works by David Sedaris was as enjoyable as any of his others. While this one did have a significant amount of discussion of how our bodies fail us as we age, it was hysterically funny. I was so happy that he included another exploration of idioms from around the world, as those are my favorites in his works. This time it was "How do you tell off another driver when they, say, cut you off in traffic?" The answers were so good, I may add them to my own repertoire. As I always do, I listened to this read by the author. In my opinion, this is the only way to go with Sedaris books. His impressions of his family are so fun to listen to.
