What to expect
'Unquestionably the king of comic writing . . . Calypso is both funnier and more heartbreaking than pretty much anything out there - Hadley Freeman, Guardian
'We get more of a glimpse than we have before of what lies behind the carapace of a writer who seems able to turn almost any situation to comic gold . . . [an] incredibly funny and sometimes moving meditation on love, death and family life, by a master of his craft - Sunday Times
Critics Review
-
It’s hard to think of a better living practitioner of hilarious honesty than David Sedaris
The Times -
In this latest collection of anecdotes, the American humorist David Sedaris riffs on Covid, death and family . . . No longer elfin, Sedaris has matured into a devilish imp who scourges human folly and filth
Observer -
Sedaris’ signature wit has always thrived on the macabre, so perhaps it should come as no surprise that Happy-Go-Lucky is some of his darkest – and most astute – writing yet… No topic is out of bounds for Sedaris’ acerbic humor and sharp observations
Time -
Sedaris is funny – invariably. That’s his gift… Even amid the overwhelming gloom of the pandemic, a summer of unrest and the death of a father toward whom he still has complicated feelings, Sedaris never loses his wit or his crack timing
Los Angeles Times -
Sedaris is one of the writers whose discovery you wish on friends, because it means they have a wealth of brilliant writing to discover . . . David Sedaris still delivering his killer lines
Irish Examiner -
The writer’s affable misanthropy and self-deprecation are on display in a new set of reflections on life and death
