{"product_id":"naked","title":"Naked","description":"\u003cp\u003eNaked is a collection of memoirs by David Sedaris. The pieces look at the funny, ridiculous side of today's world and draw a sharp, recognisable picture of it. In 'A Plague of Tics', Sedaris is humbled by his own obsessive habits. In the title story, he is at last made to confront himself without clothes, surrounded by lunatics, and he stops to ask what it all means. Throughout, the book traces his lifelong hunt for who he really is, told with very little flattery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhy You Should Read?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnjoy a collection of memoirs that finds wild, absurd comedy in the ordinary details of modern life.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFollow Sedaris through 'A Plague of Tics', where his obsessive behaviour leaves him thoroughly humiliated.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplore a lifelong search for identity, told by a narrator who keeps himself humble.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExperience the title story, a soulful and moving moment in which he faces himself among lunatics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDavid Sedaris\u003c\/strong\u003e was born on December 26, 1956, and grew up in a middle-class suburb near Raleigh, North Carolina.
