Book description
Augusten Burroughs's "Running with Scissors" was 'funnier
and more alarming than any memoir in recent history'
("Independent on Sunday"). "Dry" proved that he
could do it again. And now, with these true stories, his fans are in
for a treat. "Magical Thinking" gives voice to thoughts we
all have but dare not mention. What makes the collection so original
is Augusten's sharp-eyed observations about things that are unique to
him, but somehow universal to us all.
"'Burroughs's latest collection of true stories are outrageous,
revealing... you wouldn't want him as a godfather for your children but
he is damn funny.' Observer 'Burroughs is a natural storyteller... as
brilliantly witty, waspish and self-deprecating as ever.' Daily Mail
'The success of Augusten Burroughs's memoirs is down to a quality given
free rein in Magical Thinking... this latest book confirms that
Burroughs is a hilarious and skilled raconteur - he's so awful, it's
hard not to like him.' Metro Augusten Burroughs lives in New York
City. He is the author of the bestsellers Running with Scissors, Dry and
Magical Thinking.
