"Burroughs has lived this story, so his delivery perfectly matches the tone and pacing needed. Focusing on a series of failed relationships, Burroughs lets his voice rise in both tension and tenor as he analyzes the reasons, with help from analysis, that some relationships work and others are doomed by the personal quirks of both people." — AudioFile Magazine

Must have been ghost written but Denis’ friend Tedia. Brutally boring. Usually love Augusten Burroughs but this was really hard to even finish.
