naked

Naked by David Sedaris is outrageously funny. It is a great book to read out loud (if you can stop laughing enough to continue).

Naked is a memoir, sort of. I would have to guess that it is an exaggerated memoir with some embellishment thrown in. I don't even know what to say about it. He makes fun of his family and himself, usually a theme I wouldn't find all that funny. But, like South Park, he picks on everyone so thoroughly it doesn't seem biased or offensive.

I don't know; somehow it just works. Check it out.
