"After saying for years that he would never publish his most intimate writings, his diaries, David Sedaris released the first volume, Theft By Finding, captivating readers by offering a rare window into the author's early years as a struggling artist. Now, A Carnival of Snackery tells the rest of the story, picking up as Sedaris is discovered, moves to France, and decides to give this full-time writing thing a go. Here we read the story behind the stories that have become modern classics, as Sedaris takes French classes, helps his boyfriend Hugh renovate a dilapidated Normandy farmhouse, connects with his family, and starts to go on the road reading his work out loud to increasingly adoring fans.
