Title: Some of the best Sedaris essays ever, even touching
Review: I first discovered Sedaris with a recommendation here at Amazon(Naked). It was a great book, one of my all time favorites. I've read all of his books and listened to most of the audio CDs, and while they were all solid, "Dress Your Family..." is his second-best work. Others have commented on the increased "ick" factor, but I think Sedaris is actually more involving here than in some of his funnier stories. The story of his brother Rooster's wedding is one the best, most hilarious works I've ever read. But he also get serious talking about the strained relationship he has with his most-unconventional sister (and that's pretty out there). I could really relate to what he, and his sister, were going through. He also gets a bit heavy talking about being an openly gay man and how he's always paranoid of molestation accusations. Funny, serious, whatever. No one can write like DS!
