No ‘Soup’ for us — guru’s kid

The son of best-selling writer Jack Canfield, who penned the touchy-feely “Chicken Soup for the Soul” series, has opened a can of worms with his own scalding memoir of a cold-hearted dad and a dysfunctional upbringing.

“He was the lying, cheating, conniving, manipulative inhuman son of a bitch who had left my mom when I was one and she was six months pregnant,” Oran Canfield spews in “Long Past Stopping,” which hits the shelves Tuesday.

He said his dad abandoned his mom and brother to shack up with a young blond masseuse.

After trouble with drugs and stealing, Oran eventually cleaned himself up. Now he lives in Brooklyn and is a drummer in a band called Child Abuse.

Surprisingly, he said his father, who couldn’t be reached for comment, loved the memoir.

“It actually repaired the relationship to a degree,” Oran said.
