As usual a wonderful compilation of short stories from Sedaris. I loved happy place, #2, dentist, kookaburra, owls and rubbish especially.
I really disliked loggerheads. The animal cruelty was a bit too much for me...
Also the ficitinal short stories weren't my thing. I would have wished that the aurhor had marked them so that I could have skipped them entirely. But he hadn't, so from time to time I wondered why sedaris has a number of children, speaks a weird dialect or is radical christian just to realize that I stumbled upon one of these short stories...
