Following the success of his brand new best-selling book Happy-Go-Lucky, critically acclaimed author and humourist David Sedaris will visit Canberra as part of his 2023 Australian tour for an evening filled with storytelling, observations, unpublished tales, audience Q&A’s and book signings.

Happy-Go-Lucky, which sees Sedaris at his darkly, personal best, is a The New York Times best seller.

A regular contributor to The New Yorker, over the course of his career Sedaris has penned many collections of personal essays including Naked, Me Talk Pretty One Day, Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim, When You Are Engulfed in Flames, Let’s Explore Diabetes with Owls and Theft By Finding: Diaries (1977-2002), Carnival of Snackery and The Best of Me.

A savant of razor-sharp and sardonic wit, don’t miss your opportunity to spend an evening with one of the world’s pre-eminent humour writers.

“The happy-go-unlucky Sedaris is forever being frustrated, humiliated or downright annihilated, and the mishaps he chronicles probably explain why readers feel so fondly protective towards him.” – The Guardian, 2022
