Presented by KNKX. David Sedaris’ sardonic wit and incisive social critiques make him one of America’s preeminent humor writers. Likened to a modern-day Mark Twain, he is noted for his ability to draw humorous, touching, and universal observations about human nature from his own, often quirky, experiences. A master of satire and one of today’s most observant writers, David is a best-selling author with titles including Me Talk Pretty One Day, When You Are Engulfed in Flames, Let’s Explore Diabetes with Owls, and The Best of Me. His latest book is entitled Happy-Go-Lucky.

He returns to Seattle for his annual reading and signing at Benaroya Hall on November 12. With wickedly funny irreverence and occasional potty humor, he will once again delight the audience as he shares both published stories and works-in-progress. If we must live in interesting times, there is no one better to chronicle them than the incomparable David Sedaris.
