 欢迎来到大卫·赛德瑞斯的奇妙脑瓜中，这里的狗比孩子有地位，吉他有胸部，法国幼童胜过美国成年男性……这里正能量不再没有敌人，毒舌才是完美的“心灵马杀鸡”！

——媒体推荐——

他的幽默感仿佛多萝西•帕克和詹姆斯•瑟伯结合在了一起，是一种漫不经心的复杂而又匪夷所思的幽默。

——《娱乐周刊》

大卫•赛德瑞斯或许是这个星球上活着的非常有趣的人了。

——《Time Out 纽约》

与马克·吐温和纳撒尼尔·霍桑相比，大卫·赛德瑞斯堪称我们这个时代为人喜爱的幽默作家，他的写作直指当下的可笑之处。《说得美》描写了一些他旅居法国期间的片段，还收录了部分曾经刊登在《纽约客》、《时尚先生》以及曾在美国国家公共电台播出的内容。这是一本不容错过的有趣合集。

——《纽约客》

Still keeps me company like a party guest who's been asked to spend the night...His essays about living in Paris are full of piss and vinegar and achingly funny. Armistead Maupin Audaciously combining memoir, essay, and what has to be fiction, this fourth collection of short pieces offers pleasures normally to be found only in the best novels and the rare standup act that is actually funny.

——THE NEW YORKER

He is, simply, very funny... refusing to find anything an unfit subject for humour.

——SUNDAY TIMES

A sophisticatedly funny take on modern life. Treat yourself to this book.

——IRISH TIMES

——内容介绍——

一个人成熟的标志就是 有质量地发！牢！骚！

继脱口秀名嘴奥普拉、拉里·金后，大卫·赛德瑞斯迅速窜红，被时代周刊誉为“最幽默的人”。这个希腊裔美国人，以调侃的态度把几近灾难的经验娓娓道来，每一个转折都让你在心领神会的瞬间无法抑制地大笑，被比作新一代的伍迪�6�4艾伦。

令人想不到的是，赛德瑞斯在书中自爆从小即被诊断为“语言障碍”，必须接受发音矫正。成年之后，大卫原可以把这种心酸抛之脑后，结果和爱人旅居法国又逼着他从头学习法语，“被迫开始说话”的噩梦再次降临。而且这次，他变成了一个说话像婴儿的成年人，一个令人毛骨悚然的“男人婴儿”。

书中既有对早年家庭生活（奇葩家人）的回忆，也有和同志爱人臭味相投的暖心故事。无责任全方面吐槽美国人、电脑、狗屎、电影、法国人、法语、餐馆菜单、昂贵酒店，每一个槽点都深入你心！请谨记《纽约时报》书评人的教训：不要在吃饭时阅读本书，以免把满口的牛排喷到桌子上~

Anyone that has read NAKED and BARREL FEVER, or heard David Sedaris speaking live or on the radio will tell you that a new collection from him is cause for jubilation. His recent move to Paris from New York inspired these hilarious new pieces, including 'Me Talk Pretty One Day', about his attempts to learn French from a sadistic teacher who declares that 'every day spent with you is like having a caesarean section'. His family is another inspiration. 'You Can't Kill the Rooster' is a portrait of his brother, who talks incessant hip-hop slang to his bewildered father. And no one hones a finer fury in response to such modern annoyances as restaurant meals presented in ludicrous towers of food and cashiers with six-inch fingernails.
