BOOK OF THE WEEK: LET’S EXPLORE DIABETES WITH OWLS BY DAVID SEDARIS

Sedaris’s offbeat humour and unique perspective make for compulsive reading. This new collection of essays from the writer, who won devoted readers with compilations  like Barrel Fever and Me Talk Pretty One Day, delights with its twists of intelligence and the comedic. But don’t expect pure farce. As always, Sedaris masterfully interweaves emotional weight and pointed social commentary (and sometimes a little controversy). Read the excerpt, here.
