People always make the wolf more formidable than he is

A Wolf at the Table: A Memoir of My Father
Augusten Burroughs

My latest review has posted at Pajiba, and this time it's on A Wolf at the Table, Augusten Burroughs' memoir of his father. You might remember him from an earlier work, Running With Scissors, but don't expect this new work to have the same humorous, light-hearted tone.

To read my review, go here.

In a nutshell: Issues of reliability aside, Wolf is a moving and cathartic memoir.

Bibliolatry Scale: 3 out of 6 stars
