It's a series of stories/essays from his life. It is quite hilarious, and extremely witty.
The subjects range from getting over a lisp, to brief experiments with modern art, to his sister wearing a fat suit to piss off their Dad, to being an American living in France.
He's the brother of Amy Sedaris, the actor/director/writer.
It is such clever writing. Really good for bus rides.

it's a book to tell you how to be evil sanna. this is what it says on the back of the book:

Questions like these trouble any self-respecting villian. Now, for the first time ever, there is a handy guide to resolving these and other quandaries, HOW TO BE A VILLIAN includes:
How to Do an Evil Laugh The Evil Henchmen Guide Fashion for the Evil-Doer The Evil Plan Generator

Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury. Follows a "fireman" in the future. "Fireman" means "book burner." He begins to question his society and eventually starts reading books -- which is illegal. It's one of my favorite books and gave me a good slap in the face. I am now never without a book.

If you like philosophy and science you would like it. But there is a lot of pretty brutal sex references in it too.. so maybe you should wait reading it for a year or two in case you want to read it.
