This book will make you laugh out loud at the most unexpected times. David Sedaris is a hilarious writer and the funny parts sneak up on you when you least expect it. He can make just about any experience funny - even a colonoscopy. Let's Explore Diabetes with Owls is not a novel about owls or diabetes. It is a series of skits and essays. At the very, very end he adds a dozen short poems about various breeds of dogs that I had to read three times because it was that funny. Sedaris is disrespectful AND respectful at the same time. He is a little bit different and very much the same as most people. He has lived in England and in France. The differences of living in the European countryside are fascinating. I'm a big Sedaris fan.
