Calypso by David Sedaris
4.0

David Sedaris has done it again. About halfway through, he lost me, because I felt like I had heard the stories before (maybe I have - I’ve been to a number of his book readings and he does often read new pieces), but by the time I got past the the halfway point, he had me hooked on every word. I laughed out loud multiple times and loved his dry wit.

This is the first time I’ve listened to a David Sedaris book on audible, and I have to say that I really enjoyed listening to him read his own stories. Each essay is about 20 minutes, so it’s perfect for listening between podcasts or in the car.
