David Sedaris - Santaland Diaries

Six David Sedaris Christmas pieces; I like the two which are apparently based on real experiences (accounts of working as a Macy's Christmas elf and, as a teenager, meeting a co-worker of his sister's who also happens to be a ho - he doesn't fail to bring out the seasonal pun - respectively) much more than the others, whose satire is biting but, with the exception of the misguidedly critical theatre reviews of elementary and middle school Christmas productions ("Front Row Centre with Thaddeus Bristol"), too mean-spirited for my liking.
