David Sedaris has been gay for a long long time.
99% of his writing has NO gay content.
AND he is quite simply one of America’s best and funniest writers.
So?....The teacher just had to find one of the 1% that had gay content? Unbelievable!
By the way, his “Santaland Diaries” are very funny and perceptive. I read them aloud to my homeschoolers. ( And,..Yes, there is some very tame homosexual content.)I wouldn't assign them for other people's children to read, though.
Agreed!
His story entitled “A Plague of Tics”, about his OCD, is one of the most hilarious things I have ever read.
I haven't read any of his books, but I do have a book by his whacked-out sister, Amy Sedaris. She is a freak...I love her!
I certainly wouldn't want to see any gay content in my kids' school assignments, but I wouldn't mind reading Sedaris's "clean" stuff for myself if he's as funny as I've heard.
