Rehmat J wrote this review Sunday, November 1 2009. ( reply | permalink ) Was this review helpful? Yes | No“Augusten Burroughs conveys his life as an alcoholic with a clarity and a gritty honesty that helps to open up the constant struggle he faces. His revealing look at his life and the road he stumbles down give a deeper understanding of how extreme the need of alcoholics can be. Reading this book was like being taken along a path that I wasn’t sure I could follow. His story is filled with humor and a desire to grasp a part of life that he sensed was missing yet had no idea what it was he was even trying to find. From his denial of any problem associated with drinking, his total ability to believe that he was functioning well, to the clarity of what his life had become and where he was headed, Augusten Burroughs grabs the reader with an intensity that is vivid and impassioned. ”
