The long-awaited new collection of stories from David Sedaris, America's favourite humorist.
'Sedaris is the premier observer of our world and its weirdnesses'
ADAM KAY
'Funnier and more heartbreaking than pretty much anything out there'
HADLEY FREEMAN, GUARDIAN
'The brilliance of David Sedaris' writing is that his very essence, his aura, seeps through the pages of his books like an intoxication cloud'
ALAN CUMMING, NEW YORK TIMES
'The funniest writer alive today'
JONATHAN ROSS
'An incredibly funny and sometimes moving meditation on love, death and family life'
SUNDAY TIMES
When he buys a beach house on the Carolina coast, Sedaris envisions long, relaxing vacations spent playing board games and lounging in the sun with those he loves most. And life at the Sea Section, as he names the vacation home, is exactly as idyllic as he imagined, except for one tiny, vexing realisation: it's impossible to take a vacation from yourself.
