Augusten Burroughs revisits his early childhood and examines his relationship with his father, John G. Robison, in his memoir, A Wolf at the Table. The events in this book are meant to precede his earlier memoir, Running with Scissors.
-
Inspiration
A Wolf at the Table was partly inspired by a childhood dream Burroughs had, in which his father showed him a spot in the woods where he claimed to have buried a dead body. Though Burroughs has no proof that this happened, he believes the dream is an actual memory.Gay and Lesbian Times: Augusten Burroughs: An Open Book (May 29, 2008)Criticism
While his earlier memoir, Running with Scissors, approached dark subject matter with a sense of humor, the critics agree that there is very little humor to be found in Burroughs' memories of his sociopath father's fits of alcoholic rage. In a pre-release interview, Burroughs described the story as "devastating" and "terrifying."Wikinews: Augusten Burroughs Interview: On Addiction, Writing, His Family and His New Book (October 12, 2007)Author Facts
