Finished reading David Sedaris' "When You Are Engulfed In Flames." If you are a Sedaris fan, as I am, then this is a good book for you. The last book of his that I read was "Me Talk Pretty One Day," which I recall as being side-splittingly funny. This one didn't have me rolling on the floor, but it was pleasurable and funny with his characteristic sense of offbeat, awkward humor.Sedaris describes his life in France and in Tokyo and his language misadventures. He humorously chronicles his struggles to come out as gay and to quit smoking. The NYT Book Review on the jacket fairly calls it "A delightful compilation of essays circling the theme of death and dying, with nods to the French countryside, art collecting, and feces."
I would reccommend.
