When You are Engulfed in Flames by David Sedaris
is a humorous collection of essays that pertain to death or dying. David recalls tales from his life and the people who have been a part of his life. The stories seem disconnected at first, but Sedaris seems to hold his stories together by a string of humor. My favorite story was the one about his cranky old lady neighbor. I also particularly enjoyed his recollection of his struggle to stop smoking. Read this book if you enjoy David Sedaris
, you like humorous essays, or if you want to read quick and easy sections of a book. I give it a 7 out of 10.
