YOU BETTER NOT CRY…Stories for Christmas, is a caustically funny, nostalgic, poignant, and moving collection of stories, as the author recounts Christmases past and present—as only Burroughs could!
With gimlet eyed wit and illuminated prose, Augusten shows how the holidays bring out the worst in us and sometimes, just sometimes, the very, very best...Like that you’ve eaten too much candy at Christmas, but have you ever eaten the face off a six-foot stuffed Santa? You’ve seen gingerbread houses…but have you ever made your own gingerbread tenement? You’ve woken up with a hangover…but have you ever woken up next to Kris Kringle himself?
