Jeeves is the gentleman’s gentleman of Bertie Wooster and a genius in creating good ideas in troublesome situations. Not a bad quality for a butler with an employer called Wooster, because when Wooster isn’t in trouble a friend of his is and Wooster always wants to help his friends, no matter how bad the situation.
Just like in Me talk pretty one day Sedaris has bundled some of his (family) stories. Every aspect of family (life), discovering yourself and the ones around you, knowing how to handle your parents and siblings, is being investigated and written down in a hilarious, original and readable way.

In my last post I already told about this book and how I liked it. Well, now I’ve read all the ten stories and I’m sticking with my earlier judgement: a great set of stories full of imagination and wonderful telling.
All you need to have is an open mind and you’re all set for a good time.

This book contains of short chapters, each telling us a situation or an episode out of Sedaris’ life. Well, you may expect this book autobiographical, because he uses his real name for his character and he tells his stories in such a way, he must have lived them. The episodes are not told chronological but in a way the brain works with memories; then this one jumps up, then another one, totally random. One chapter you learn about how David in his twenties is a cool artist with his own exhibitions, the next chapter David is telling about all the dogs they had at home when he was a child.
