Happy-Go-Lucky - Paperback

Personal essays from David Sedaris on the pandemic, aging parents, and the small absurdities of daily life.

Happy-Go-Lucky shows Sedaris at his most reflective. He writes about mortality, aging, and the everyday moments that shift our understanding of who we are. The deadpan precision that has made him one of America's most-read essayists cuts even deeper here.

Faculty assign this to students learning narrative nonfiction. It belongs on shelves of anyone who has loved Sedaris and wants to see him grow.
