Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim David Sedaris

I have read other books by this author. ( Me Talk Pretty One Day, and Naked ) He is hard to describe; most reviews say he is funny, but he is also sad. I liked the review that said ... the sort of blithely sophisticated, loopy humor that might have resulted if Dorothy Parker and James Thurber had had a love child. And the review that described one of his other books as Christmas stories collected in one slender volumn perfect for use as a last-minute coaster or ice scraper. He writes about his very interestingly disfunctional Greek family, introspective but honest, and usually funny.
