One of the most compelling and screamingly funny voices of the new century belongs to Augusten Burroughs. . . . Burroughs is blessed with an offbeat perspective and a viciously uncensored wit, a delight to read. "USA Today"
Augusten Burroughs shows why he is the memoirist-of-the-moment with his harrowing and laugh-out-loud new essay collection, "Magical Thinking." "Vanity Fair"
Ruthlessly funny . . . deliciously perverse . . . he extracts something funny from every shred of his own warped experience. "Magical Thinking" indeed. "People(four stars)"
Sports nuts have Dave Barry, Midwesterners have Garrison Keillor, and the rest of us--gay guys, misfits, those with horrific childhoods--have Burroughs. He hooks you into a story better than anybody. "Entertainment Weekly(A-)"
Every so often a 'writer's writer' pops up and deliciously ambushes readers--writers like David Sedaris, Larry Brown, and Frank McCourt. . . . Augusten Burroughs deserves membership to this inner circle. . . . "Magical Thinking" is finely-honed and addicting . . . Miraculous. "Rocky Mountain News (Denver)"
Deeply satisfying, full of both gleeful one-liners and shocking instances of profound wisdom . . . There are few writers as outrageously magical or as surprisingly thoughtful as Augusten Burroughs. "The Atlanta Journal-Constitution"
A literary favorite--right up there with humorists David Sedaris and Laurie Notaro . . . Fascinating. "Boston Herald"
Superlatively disturbed . . . A brand-new collection of deliciously lurid true tales offer[s] an irresistible display of sanity hanging by a thread. "Booklist(starred review)"
Still wild, sad, funny, tender, and frightening . . . It's all about the journey. Do go along. Just be sure to pack some tissues for the laughing and the crying. "The Seattle Times""
