Hi..I have listened to David Sedaris on Radio 4 / 4 Extra for a while now. Also I order his books from Library ... But .. his last book published in 2026 has lots of the Essays he recounts on the Radio ?... Now .. I dont want to read Essays which he has read on the Radio ? I think if he is saying these are fresh essays to be published then that is not quite true ? Any Ideas ?

Hi
I read his new book last week and really enjoyed it. None of the essays reminded me of any I’ve heard on the radio.
Perhaps order a library copy (as I did too), then there’s no loss if it does turn out to be too familiar.

There are lots of essays I have heard before ... Lots of the stories about his sisters, and his parents ... I do enjoy listening to his tales ,,,
