Me talk pretty one day

Me talk pretty one day

Many of the 27 short essays collected here deal with the author's father, Lou. Lou is a micromanager who tries to get his uninterested children to form a jazz combo and, when that fails, insists on boosting David's career as a performance artist by heckling him from the audience. Sedaris also writes here about the time he spent in France and the difficulty of learning another language.
