Description
Whether he s describing a contest of wills and a deranged cleaning lady, the simultaneous thrill and self-disgust that comes from killing a rodent in your home, or the instinctive desire for fifteen minutes of fame in a Tang commercial, these stories give voice to thoughts we all have but dare not mention. What makes the collection so original is Augusten's sharp-eyed observations about things that are unique to him, but somehow universal to us all. MAGICAL THINKING is contagiously funny, heartwarming, shocking, twisted and absolutely magical.
