Writer, humorist, and master of satire David Sedaris is coming to Kalamazoo for an evening of readings and recollections, Q&A, and book signing. One of the country’s preeminent humor writers, beloved for his personal essays and short stories, Sedaris writes in a style both autobiographical and self-deprecating, ruminating on family life, his middle-class, suburban upbringing, homosexuality, drug use, and obsessive behaviors. Several of his books have graced national bestseller lists, including Calypso, Naked, Me Talk Pretty One Day, Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim, and Happy-Go-Lucky.
David’s books will be on sale in the lobby before and after the show. David will sign books for patrons before and after the show.
