Augusten Burroughs's "e;Running with Scissors"e; was 'funnier and more alarming than any memoir in recent history' ("e;Independent on Sunday"e;). "e;Dry"e; proved that he could do it again. And now, with these true stories, his fans are in for a treat. "e;Magical Thinking"e; 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.
