Calypso by David Sedaris

Idk. This isn't my humor. I laughed twice in 7 chapters/stories. I assume these stories are nonfiction, as I believe that is Sedaris' form (this is my first encounter with him, obviously). But, they read like fiction, that's how I laughed was by thinking that way. Otherwise, I don't feel comfortable laughing at "fond" memories of the suicide of a sister, fading father, gay slurs, bad parenting, dysfunctional views of self. I see what Sedaris is doing, I do. This just isn't for me.
