If there are any David Sedaris fans out there, you definitely need to pick up his latest book, When You Are Engulfed in Flames.

A collection of essays spanning his life, the subjects range from Sedaris' obsession with seeing a dingo while vacationing in Australia (not knowing its just a dog), to his obsession with a family of spiders in his home, to attempting to quit smoking in Tokyo. All rather mundane subjects, but made absolutely hilarious by Sedaris' expert timing and droll sense of humor.


"Growing up my dad was like 'You have a great last name, Galifianakis. Galifianakis...begins with a gal...and ends with a kiss...' I'm like that's great dad, can we get it changed to 'Galifianafuck' please?" -- Zach Galifianakis
