Happy-Go-Lucky

'One of the writers whose discovery you wish on friends, because it means they have a wealth of brilliant writing to discover' Irish Examiner

In Happy-Go-Lucky, David Sedaris once again captures what is most unexpected, hilarious, and poignant about recent upheavals, personal and public, and expresses in precise language both the misanthropy and desire for connection that drive us all. If we must live in interesting times, there is no one better to chronicle them than the incomparable David Sedaris.



'Sedaris gazes unflinchingly at his family, including himself, in a way that is laugh-out-loud funny yet somehow avoids being cruel' Times Literary Supplement


'His wickedly hilarious riffs are pyrotechnics in words' Peter Conrad, Observer
