David Sedaris, America’s best-selling humorist and social satirist, returns following the publication of his most recent book of short stories, "Happy Go Lucky," and his first-ever children’s book, "Pretty Ugly."
In his customary sartorial and humorous manner, David will make you laugh and think in equal measure with new, unpublished stories and commentary. The reading will accompany a book signing in the Diamonstein Concert Hall lobby.
