In his fourth collection of essays and stories, Augusten Burroughs continues to mine the pain and awkwardness of his life for laughs. With a wild sense of humor and devastating powers of observation, Burroughs lays bare not only his own experiences, but the absurdities of society. In this book, he tackles fast-food, the worst gay date, his own book tour, the dog he couldn't take care of, and, of course, his relationship with his negligent mother.
