Review title: Real and Brilliant
Product review: "Dry" tells the story of an addict better than anything I have ever come across. Augusten Burroughs lays his life bare for the world to see. It's funny at times, incredibly sad, but real--completely honest.To understand the context one must first read "Running with Scissors." In it, Burroughs lays bare his childhood and one gains an understanding of how he could find himself living the life he shares in "Dry."I picked this book up only because I had read his previous book--I had no idea of the subject matter. That being said, it opened my eyes. The reality of an addict's life is shocking to those who have never experienced it, but necessary for anyone who has someone in their life that is struggling.Burroughs is to be commended for his honesty. His work is brilliant.
