Description

A *NEW YORK TIMES* BESTSELLER about Christmases past and present from the #1 bestselling author of *Running with Scissors* , *Dry* , and *A Wolf at the Table* At eight years old, Augusten Burroughs profoundly misunderstood the meaning of Christmas. Now proving himself once more “a master of making tragedy funny” ( *The Miami Herald* ), he shows how the holidays can bring out the worst in us and sometimes, just sometimes, the very best. From the author described in *USA Today* as “one of the most compelling and screamingly funny voices of the new century” comes a book about surviving the holiday we love to hate, and hate to love.
