New York & Boston: Little Brown, (2017). First edition - "For forty years, David Sedaris has kept a diary in which he records everything that captures his attention - overheard comments, salacious gossip, soap opera plot twists, secrets confided by total strangers [and] now, he shares his private writings with the world. . . Written with a sharp eye and ear for the bizarre, the beautiful, and the uncomfortable, and with a generosity of spirit that even a misanthropic sense of humor can't fully disguise, [this is] a potent reminder that when you're as perceptive and curious as Sedaris, there's no such thing as a boring day." 514 pp.
