Running with Scissors

Burroughs’ darkly comic memoir is a rollercoaster of dysfunction and absurdity. From his eccentric mother’s psychiatric breakdown to living with her unhinged therapist, Augusten’s adolescence is anything but ordinary. With razor-sharp wit, he recounts bizarre family dynamics, unconventional living arrangements, and coming-of-age experiences that are equal parts hilarious and horrifying. This raw, unflinching account will make you laugh, cringe, and marvel at the resilience of the human spirit.
