Jacket review
'Practical and hilarious' -- Publishers Weekly Starred review 'Her off-the-wall entertaining techniques can now be yours...Each situation is handled with an aplomb that can only come from a lifetime of hostessing...Though the lifestyle elements that run through the book may bring to mind a more whimsical cousin of Martha Stewart, Sedaris in action is actually more reminiscent of Julia Child, with directions and details that are refreshingly candid.' -- New York Post 'The times call for a heroine, someone to lift us above the malaise, who can inspire us by daring to live a life worth emulating. The times call for a modern-day Marie Antoinette...To take up her queenly mantle, may we suggest Amy Sedaris.' -- News and Observer, New York
