1:02:50Now PlayingBurroughs introduced himself in Running with Scissors, the basis for the 2006 Brad Pitt movie, and has kept readers apprised of his career, his anxieties, and the lingering effects of his childhood trauma through a series of autobiographical books including Dry and A Wolf at the Table. His seventh memoir focuses on his love life—which consistently falls short of expectations, even as his books earn him wealth and fame. Always witty and entertaining, this saga of heartbreak demonstrates why Burroughs was named one of Entertainment Weekly’s “25 Funniest People.”
