What happens when your mother gives you away to her psychiatrist's family, and they're all crazier than she is. Burroughs writes about childhood trauma with a comedian's timing and a survivor's clear eyes. The paperback reads fast, but the laughs have teeth. This is memoir as survival guide—for anyone who grew up in chaos and learned to find the absurd in the unbearable.
