Holidays on Ice

Holidays on Ice by David Sedaris (1997) 123 pages


This short book contains six Christmas season stories by David Sedaris. Some are quite funny, but others are just weird, as with the story Christmas Means Giving, in which two wealthy neighbors compete to outdo each other in gift-giving, in rather odd ways. SantaLand Diaries had snippets of a young man's experiences working as an elf at Macy's during the Christmas season. The same day I read that story, I heard excerpts of it on NPR. Funny coincidence.
