About This Item
Hardcover with dust packet, published by Little, Brown, 2000. A later edition. The dust jacket is intact and is not price clipped. A collection of 28 short essays that had originally appeared in The New Yorker, Esquire and other publications. This is not a remainder, not a library discard. No former ownership marks, no writing on the text pages. Edges of the text block are clean. There is a crease mark to the top right corner of the first 16 pages of the text - top right corner, 1-1/2" diagonal crease at the top right corner. Dust jacket shows only minor rubbing wear to the back panel. Teal green boards with blue spine and the author name and title imprinted on the spine in gold. Boards are flat, and the corners are not bumped or creased. The attached photo is of the copy we have in our inventory, not a stock photo.
Synopsis
Me Talk Pretty One Day, published in 2000, is a bestselling collection of essays by American humorist David Sedaris. The book is separated into two parts. The first consists of essays about Sedaris’ life before his move to Normandy, France including his upbringing in suburban Raleigh, North Carolina, his time working odd jobs in New York City, and a visit to New York from a childhood friend and her rather bumpkinish girlfriend.
