About this listen
David Sedaris made his debut on NPR's Morning Edition with "SantaLand Diaries", recounting his strange-but-true experiences as an elf at Macy's, and soon became one of the show's most popular commentators. With a perfect eye and a voice infused with as much empathy as wit, Sedaris writes stories and essays that target the soulful ridiculousness of our behaviour. Barrel Fever is like a blind date with modern life, and anything can happen.

Critic reviews
"David and Amy Sedaris have a deadpan delivery as ironic as the words they read. The two of them create a nuclear barrage of humor you could never replicate by reading this material on your own." ( The Boston Globe)

Too short. Too disjointed.
I love David Sedaris’s autobiographical books, but I didn’t enjoy this one. For some reason, the humor that works for real events, doesn’t work for fiction (for me at least). Also, the book is quite short and the stories are more like short anecdotes that might be funny in a standup act, but don’t work well in an audiobook.
