You Better Not Cry

Serial memoirist Augusten Burroughs will read from his new book, You Better Not Cry, at SCAD's Ivy Hall tomorrow. If you can't make it or want a sneak preview of the profane, droll world that spills from his mouth, we've got a got a great clip of him reading a passage from the book. It's not quite as trancelike as his recent interview, but Burroughs' has the sort of distinct voice that lends his stories a memorable charm.

Be sure to stick around for the opera singer.
