ONE DAY WE'LL ALL BE DEAD AND NONE OF THIS WILL MATTER Essays

Canadian humorist Scaachi Koul performs her collection of biographical essays, which range from amusing to illuminating. Addressing topics like living between cultures, anxiety, and body image, Koul's precise and understated delivery allows listeners time to consider her words as she finds humor and interest in unexaggerated reality. These strengths are especially useful when she navigates through family trees and sometimes complicated rites of passage. The production is punctuated by vignettes in which Koul's father talks directly to her, gently admonishing as fathers will, adding another layer to stories that often include him. This production will please fans of humorists like David Sedaris and Mindy Kaling. A.F. © AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine [Published: AUGUST 2017]
