When You Are Engulfed in Flames by David Sedaris
5.0
(5/5★)
I have a feeling I'm going to enjoy pretty much anything written by David Sedaris. After reading (and thoroughly enjoying) Naked, I did wonder if his other works were of similar quality. Needless to say, I enjoyed this book just as much. Sedaris is brilliant at expressing a sarcastic tone in his writing that makes most of what he says inherently funny. The last story, about Sedaris quitting smoking and spending time in Japan for 3 months, is especially great.
