David Sedaris Quits Smoking
06/24/2008 at 9:00 a.m.
You'd like to quit smoking, but quitting is so hard! Maybe leaving the country would help. Humorist David Sedaris declares, 'let's save Africa and the Middle East for when I decide to quit living.' That's how he ends up quitting smoking in Japan. His story "The Smoking Section" is just one of 17 new essays in his book When you are Engulfed in Flames. Sedaris joins us on the next Weekday.Related Event
