David Sedaris's beloved holiday collection is new again with six more pieces, including a never before published story. Along with such favorites as the diaries of a Macy's elf and the annals of two very competitive families, are Sedaris's tales of tardy trick-or-treaters (Us and Them); the difficulties of explaining the Easter Bunny to the French (Jesus Shaves); what to do when you've been locked out in a snowstorm (Let It Snow); the puzzling Christmas traditions of other nations (Six to Eight Black Men); what Halloween at the medical examiner's looks like (The Monster Mash); and a barnyard secret Santa scheme gone awry (Cow and Turkey). No matter what your favorite holiday, you won't want to miss celebrating it with the author who has been called one of the funniest writers alive (Economist).

A riotous collection of memoirs which explores the absurd hilarity of modern life and creates a wickedly incisive portrait of an all-too-familiar world. It takes Sedaris from his humiliating bout with obsessive behaviour in 'A Plague of Tics' to the title story, where he is finally forced to face his naked self in the company of lunatics. At this soulful and moving moment, he brushes cigarette ashes from his pubic hair and wonders what it all means. This remarkable journey into his own life follows a path of self-effacement and a lifelong search for identity leaving himself both under suspicion and over dressed.

In questa raccolta di shortstories l'autore gioca nella neve con le sorelle; va in vacanza con la famiglia; assiste al matrimonio del fratello; scopa il pavimento di casa della sorella; dà indicazioni a un viaggiatore smarrito; mangia un hamburger; si sottopone ad un esame del sangue. Tutte cose apparentemente normali. Con questo libro di racconti David Sedaris rivela quella buona dose di assurdità che brulica sotto la superficie della vita quotidiana. Il suo mondo è Top page popolato da desideri poco confessabili e da motivi spesso poco nobili.
