Acclaimed author David Sedaris sets his formidable powers of observation — and his unmistakable voice — toward middle age and mortality in this unabridged reading of his latest collection of essays. When he buys a beach house on the Carolina coast, Sedaris envisions long, relaxing vacations spent playing board games and lounging in the sun. It's exactly as idyllic as he imagined, except for one tiny, vexing realization: it's impossible to take a vacation from yourself. Read by the author, unabridged, 6 CDs, 6.5 Hrs. Also available: Hardcover first editions signed by the author (HY5512), while supplies last.
