If you like the sly humour and witty observations of David Sedaris, here is the follow up to his 'Theft by Finding Diaries'. Now a celebrity, David Sedaris travels first class, reads what readers say about his books, and tells anecdotes in his typical diary form as he goes from New York to Seattle to London to Philadelphia to Los Angeles, to Dubai, Spokane ('I was in a murderous temper yesterday. Part of it was lack of sleep, part was general tour fatigue'), Bucharest, Emerald Isle, Santiago Chile. Here are his observations of a fight between two men on a bus, a fight between two men on the street, collecting Romanian insults or being taken round a Japanese parasite museum. There's a dirty joke shared at a book signing and a dirtier one told at a dinner party. The diary entries reflect an ever-changing background of new administrations, new restrictions on speech and conduct and his descriptions of Eastern European countries is darkly humorous. 566pp, large softback.
