Naked Abridged

Rating:
Summary: This is non-fiction?
Review: the publisher describes "naked" as non-fiction...mr. sedaris has a REALLY funny, real life. there needs to be more humor published, but this book sets the bar very high. the author's take on life and view of himself is at least memorable and at best a series of deep, gut laughs. buy this book.

Summary: Funniest man alive
Review: David Sedaris has to be one of the wittiest people living today. I find remarkable the way nothing is safe from his razor-sharp observations, least of all himself.

Rating:
Summary: Very Very Funny and More!
Review: I read Naked after I heard David Sedaris on NPR one morning reading one of his works. This book was easy to read and very engaging. I couldn't put it down. It was extremely funny.

Rating:
Summary: I wished this book would go on forever.
Review: David Sedaris is a genius. The only problem with his books is that there aren't enough of them. Naked was a pleasure to read (as were Barrel Fever and Holidays on Ice). His writing style is easy and comfortable and the stories are better than good. Witty, funny, and entertaining... I can't begin to say enough good things about Naked.

Summary: Laugh after Laugh
Review: Sedaris is a master of the short story. This and "Barrel Fever" are the funniest books I have ever read. I used to read this book while riding the bus to work in San Francisco. I would be in tears with laughter and everybody else on the bus would look at me like I was crazy, I wasn't, this is a beautiful thing! If you ever have the chance to hear Sedaris read his stories don't pass it up, his voice characterizations and inflections make these stories even better, if that were possible. Read this book you will not forget or regret it!

Summary: I was in pain from laughing
Review: I love to laugh, but I never expected to laugh this hard. I actually read entire segments of the book to friends over the phone! Thank God, that stranger in the bookstore recommended it to me! Thanks, whoever you were!

Summary: David Sedaris opens the door and lets you in.
Review: I read the fudge colored towels part on an airplane. I laughed hysterically and was sure that security was going to be waiting for me when I exited the plane. When I finished the book, I felt that I had been invited in to meet someone with no holds barred. I was left with the sense that I could pick up the phone and call David Sedaris and it would be like calling a friend. A must read.
