At the request (well, it wasn't really a request) of his employers, Augusten landed in rehab, where his dreams of group therapy with Robert Downey, Jr., are immediately dashed by the grim reality of fluorescent lighting and paper hospital slippers. Loud, distracting ties, automated wake-up calls, and cologne on the tongue could only hide so much for so long. But when the ordinary person had to drinks, Augusten was circling the drain by having twelve when the ordinary person went home at midnight, Augusten never went home at all. You've seen him on the street, in bars, on the subway, at restaurants: a twenty-something guy, nice suit, works in advertising. You may not know it, but you've met Augusten Burroughs. From the bestselling author of" Running with Scissors" comes "Dry" the hilarious, moving, and no less bizarre account of what happened next. ![]()
