Naked

In Naked, David Sedaris's message alternately rendered in Fakespeare, Itali an, Spanish, and pidgin Greek is the same: pay attention to me. Whether he's taking to the road with a thieving quadriplegic, sorting out t he fancy from the extra-fancy in a bleak fruit-packing factory, or celebrat ing Christmas in the company of a recently paroled prostitute, this collect ion of memoirs creates a wickedly incisive portrait of an all-too-familiar world. It takes Sedaris from his humiliating bout with obsessive behavior i n A Plague of Tics to the title story, where he is finally forced to face h is naked self in the mirrored sunglasses of a lunatic. At this soulful and moving moment, he picks potato chip crumbs from his pubic hair and wonders what it all means. This remarkable journey into his own life follows a path of self-effacement and a lifelong search for identity, leaving him both under suspicion and overdressed.
