OK, he had a miserable childhood and he clearly needed many hours on the psychotherapists couch to work through this and to move on with his life. But that does not make for a successful book. Perhaps being self-absorbed and narcissistic are inevitable ingredients of autobiography, but they are also attributes that make the reader/listener finally ask Why should I care? It appears that Augusten has succeeded in beating alcoholism and I admire him for that - and for being one gorgeously hot looking man - but I really hope that he can now begin to apply his considerable talents to things beyond his own pain.
