Sedaris chose the airport as his stage of writing. Normally, at airport, the thing people normally do is just waiting for the flight. Most of them should kill their time until they got a plane to their destinations. Naturally, they are easy to focus on other people's behaviors, features, and situations. It perfectly fits into Authors perspective through ourselves. He wants people to look more about each other. I think that this choice of the place makes audiences more easier to sympathized with the situations and understanding each people in the essay. This choice and the practical value of this writing seriously relates because its purpose is to look around ourselves.
I can't really understand what the question meaning.....
This assignment is asking you to consider Sedaris' writerly choices. It asks you to think about some of the decisions Sedaris made as an author. For example, calling a man "Mr. Mustache" is a writerly choice. Writing the essay about time spent in an airport is a writerly choice. And the list can keep growing. This assignment asks you to discuss some of these choices and relate them to what Sedaris' context, audience, and purpose might be.
