What to expect
If you were lucky enough to have caught a performance on David Sedaris's 2009 sold-out, 34-city tour, you already know that David Sedaris: Live For Your Listening Pleasure is a must-have audibook. If you didn't have the chance to hear it live and in person, then you're in for a real treat—this compliation includes recordings from performances in Denver, New York, Durham, LA, and Atlanta.
From the bold feral rabbits of his French backyard to the eating habits of a carnivorous bird Down Under, Live For Your Listening Pleasure takes listeners on a veritable tour of natural wonders, beginning with a fable, "Cat and Baboon," and moving on to the peculiarly American habitat of the "big-box" store.

Cat and Baboon (Temple Hoyne Buell Theatre in Denver, Colorado)
