David Sedaris begins with a brief description of what he prepares for a performance, then reveals an epic adventure of surgery and snapping turtles that transpired after a reading in El Paso.

  David Sedaris has come far since his days as a Santa’s elf, far even since his popular segments in This 

  American Life.  His writings in the New Yorker tackle topics from dentists without borders, to his sister’s suicide, to crocheted owls.  HPR’s Noe Tanigawa spoke with Sedaris in London as he prepares for visits to L?hu‘e and Hilo.

David Sedaris performs on Kaua‘i Wednesday February 18th at Kaua‘i Community College and at UH Hilo on Thursday.
