«Magical Thinking: True Stories» is Augusten Burroughs's collection of autobiographical essays, published by Macmillan USA in paperback (304 pages).

The tone blends sarcastic humour and honesty, giving voice to thoughts many keep to themselves.
The book won the Lambda Literary Award for humour in 2004. The work was originally published as «Magical Thinking» in 2004; this edition dates from 2005.
For readers of memoirs and personal essays with acerbic humour.
