Naked by David Sedaris
In Naked, David Sedaris's message alternately rendered in Fakespeare, Italian, Spanish, and pidgin Greek is the same: pay attention to me.Whether he's taking to the road with a thieving quadriplegic, sorting out the fancy from the extra-fancy in a bleak fruit-packing factory, or celebrating Christmas in the company of a recently paroled prostitute, this collection of memoirs creates a wickedly incisive portrait of an all-too-familiar world. It takes Sedaris from his humiliating bout with obsessive behavior in A Plague of Tics to the title story, where he is finally forced to face his naked self in the mirrored sunglasses of a lunatic. At this soulful and moving moment, he picks potato chip crumbs from his pubic hair and wonders what it all means.
This remarkable journey into his own life follows a path of self-effacement and a lifelong search for identity, leaving him both under suspicion and overdressed.
Theft by Finding, Let's Examine Diabetes with Owls, Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk, When You Are Engulfed in Flames, Outfit Your Family in Corduroy and Denim, Me Speak Pretty One Day, Holidays on Ice, Naked, and Barrel Fever are all books written by David Sedaris. He contributes to The New Yorker and BBC Radio 4 on a regular basis. He resides in the United Kingdom.
