In December, Playwright, NPR commentator, and bestselling author David Sedaris selected Irish Girl by Tim Johnston (University of North Texas Press, 2009) as one of his favorite books of the year.
Now, he has chosen the short story collection as the book he will be recommending on his 34-city, 2010 book tour, which he starts next week!
Bookslut recently called Johnston's stories "sharp and smart, infused with a small-town sensibility that renders them eerie and restless."

Also, be sure to catch Sedaris on his tour, which lands first in Wilmington, DE on April 6!
