The MoJo Interview: David Sedaris

"Last March, The New Republic called bullshit on humorist David Sedaris, accusing him of exaggerating his autobiographical stories. Oh well. Sedaris' new book, When You Are Engulfed in Flames, is as improbably hilarious as his others, and it doesn't look like he's about to apologize on Oprah anytime soon. Sedaris spoke with Mother Jones from his house in London."
