Product Information
David Sedaris returns with his most deeply personal and darkly hilarious book. If you've ever laughed your way through David Sedaris's cheerfully misanthropic stories, you might think you know what you're getting with Calypso. You'd be wrong. When he buys a beach house on the Carolina coast, Sedaris envisions long, relaxing vacations spent playing board games and lounging in the sun with those he loves most. And life at the Sea Section, as he names the vacation home, is exactly as idyllic as he imagined, except for one tiny, vexing realization: it's impossible to take a vacation from yourself. With Calypso, Sedaris sets his formidable powers of observation toward middle age and mortality. Make no mistake: these stories are very, very funny--it's a book that can make you laugh 'til you snort, the way only family can. Sedaris's powers of observation have never been sharper, and his ability to shock readers into laughter unparalleled. But much of the comedy here is born out of that vertiginous moment when your own body betrays you and you realize that the story of your life is made up of more past than future. This is beach reading for people who detest beaches, required reading for those who loathe small talk and love a good tumor joke. Calypso is simultaneously Sedaris's darkest and warmest book yet--and it just might be his very best.

Reviews
"The beauty of David Sedaris's personality---and what keeps his readers coming back for best-selling book after best-selling book---is his unwavering dedication to a helter-skelter train of thought... Calypso is his most personal and open book yet, shedding light on his late sister's struggle with mental health, his mother's addiction, and his own experiences with the legalization of gay marriage, but it still finds plenty of room for laughs."-- Seija Rankin , Entertainment Weekly, "The king of the humorous essay returns with abrand-new collection -- his first in five years. Sedaris fans will find plentyof familiar delights: His misanthropic charms and wry wit are as delightful asever, even if some of the subject matter has changed. From his new vacationhome on the coast of North Carolina, he writes about the concerns of health andaging, treating us to a story about the persnickety doctor who refused to lethim keep a noncancerous tumor that he'd planned to feed to a snapping turtleonce removed. We can only assume that the audiobook version of Calypso will bethe perfect travel companion during road trips and getaways this spring andbeyond."-- Maris Kreizman , New York Magazine, "The king of the humorous essay returns with a brand-new collection -- his first in five years. Sedaris fans will find plenty of familiar delights: His misanthropic charms and wry wit are as delightful as ever, even if some of the subject matter has changed.

We can only assume that the audiobook version of Calypso will be the perfect travel companion during road trips and getaways this spring and beyond."-- Maris Kreizman , New York Magazine, "If you're ever stuck in an elevator or airport, just pray for David Sedaris to appear. Time passes quickly with this national treasure of a storyteller. Reading Calypso is like settling into a glorious beach vacation with the author, whose parents, siblings and longtime boyfriend, Hugh, feel like old friends to faithful readers...While Sedaris is laugh-out-loud funny in his brilliant, meandering way, it's his personal reflections that will stay with you."-- Alice Cary , Bookpage, "Sedaris is widely considered is widely considered America's leading humorist, and his new book Calypso does nothing but burnish that reputation."-- Nic Brown , Garden & Gun, "Honest, reflective, and even tender...Eloquent and silly, Sedaris' collection could probably find unshakable life even in the dust kitties under the bed...He gets you laughing even as he gently turns you toward the darkness we all must face."-- Caroline Leavitt , San Francisco Chronicle, "With this tenthbook, Sedaris demonstrates yet again what makes him the best American humoristwriting today: a remarkable ability to combine the personal with the political,the mundane with the profane, slime with sublime, and hilarity with heart."-- Heller McAlpin , NPR, "If there's one thing you can count on in life,it's Sedaris to leave you giggling on the beach in both humor and horror. Hislatest collection of stories is a bit more serious than his previous, but evenwhen the Sedaris clan is at its worst, the humorist reveals their antics withhis characteristic wit in a way that manages to both soften and sharpen thedark truths behind the stories he tells."-- Allison McNearney , Daily Beast, "David Sedaris's biggest strength as an essayist and a humorist lies in his remarkable power of observation, of detecting the humor and pathos is the everyday conversations most of us don't register. His attention and wit are as incisive as ever, but Sedaris brings a stronger sense of self to the pages of Calypso ...It's both warmer and bleaker than any Sedaris that's come before."-- Laura Adamczyk and Caitlin Penzeymoog , AV Club, " Calypso is the most family-centered of his books yet and, although much of it is very funny, it's also his most melancholy as it addresses aging and loss...it ranges across a number of other subjects as well, often with Sedaris's trademark off-center, self-deprecating humor."-- Colette Bancroft , Tampa Bay Times, "This book allows usto observe not just the nimble-mouthed elf of Sedaris's previous work, but aman in his seventh decade expunging his darker secrets and contemplatingmortality...The brilliance of David Sedaris's writing is that his very essence,his aura, seeps through the pages of his books like an intoxicating cloud,mesmerizing us so that his logic becomes ours...The geeks really do inherit theearth."-- Alan Cumming , New York Times Book Review, "David Sedaris's new essay collection is the sharpest retort to anyone who thinks they know what our favorite curmudgeonly humorist will be up to next. His charming observational humor is still the engine, but there's nothing frivolous about it. In the wake of his sister's suicide, Sedaris grapples poignantly and satisfyingly (and yes, often hilariously) with death, the aging body, and just how far the bonds of family can stretch."-- Alex Postman , Conde Nast Traveler, "Age and family occupy beloved humoristSedaris's latest collection of essays. His observations feel sharper and oftendarker than in previous collections, as he ponders the inevitable breakdown ofthe human body, the shame attendant with illness and age, the nature ofaddiction, and the eccentricities of his family. Though middle age may havemade his shades of gray blacker, the wit and incisiveness that make Sedarismuch-adored remain."-- Lauren Hubbard , Harper's Bazaar
