The Most Educated Idiot I Know

Where others often try to hide the moments of sheer stupidity in their lives, Dean Roughton is more apt to dress them up, parade them around, and poke them with a stick.

A single father and Professor of English, Roughton recounts his idiotic childhood and educational years as well as his adult experiences with dating, parenting, weight loss, a trip to the ER, and, yes, even nearly burning down a halfway house.

In The Most Educated Idiot I Know, Dean Roughton demonstrates a proclivity to laugh when others would cry and shows us the value of our mistakes.
