Non-Fiction Biography
Running with Scissors is the true story of a boy
whose mother (a poet with delusions of Anne Sexton) gave him
away to be raised by her unorthodox psychiatrist who bore a
striking resemblance to Santa Claus. So at the age of
twelve, Burroughs found himself amidst Victorian squalor
living with the doctor’s bizarre family, and befriending a
pedophile who resided in the backyard shed. The story of an
outlaw childhood where rules were unheard of, and the
Christmas tree stayed up all year round, where Valium was
consumed like candy, and if things got dull an electroshock-
therapy machine could provide entertainment. The funny,
harrowing and bestselling account of an ordinary boy’s
survival under the most extraordinary circumstances.
