Synopsis
David Sedaris plays in the snow with his sisters. He goes on vacation with his family. He gets a job selling drinks. He attends his brother's wedding. He mops his sister's floor. He gives directions to a lost traveler. He eats a hamburger. He has his blood sugar tested. It all sounds so normal, doesn't it? In his newest collection of essays, David Sedaris lifts the corner of ordinary life, revealing the absurdity teeming below its surface. His world is alive with obscure desires and hidden motives -- a world where forgiveness is automatic and an argument can be the highest form of love. Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim is another unforgettable collection from one of the wittiest and most original writers at work today.

  • Saw this one at the middle school Book Fair!

    If you've never caught David Sedaris on NPR, or listened an audio recording read by the author -YOU MUST! It is impossible afterward to read Sedaris's work without hearing his voice. I was a little taken aback, however, when I saw this title at the Book Fair at the middle school where I teach 8th grade. You must know how the nude Barbie on the front cover catches the eye... can't believe no one complained. Sedaris never holds back when examining -for his reader's amusement- the development of his understanding of society, his own sexuality, and especially family (if 'family' can in fact BE understood.) The narratives are unflinching, yet somehow he avoids gratuitousness ...is that even a word? Hilarious, and comforting at once. Sedaris reminds us to appreciate the FUN in dysfunction.

  • Good stories.

    My son loved this book. So do I.

  • Dress Your Family In Corduroy And Denim

    So you thought that you family was a bit odd... Sedaris keeps his prose as sharp as his observations as he describes his distinctly nonfunctional family. A collection, links between stories are not always there. One just has to accept it, just as one accepts what he says about this family and lover as accurate and faithful to the character. He has enough sibling stories for many more books. Felt a bit guitly laughing at some spots, but enjoyed Sedaris immensely. Definately Sedaris at his best.

  • Comical Sarcasm, and witty writing style

    Very enjoyable writing style with his comical sarcasm. A fun book to read. David Sedaris is an author that will keep you interested at all times. This book is no different, I would absolutly recommend.

  • Little worse shape than “acceptable”
