A new and unconventional memoir by Nick Flynn chronicles his journey from the seaside town of Scituate MA to the halls of a homeless shelter in Boston where the author runs straight into the riddle that is both his father and himself. His father is living on the streets of Boston at the time and Nick is working at the shelter as a counselor. By this time, Nick’s mother has killed herself, and Nick himself is a shell, filling himself with booze, drugs, and the cold clear light of stars above Boston Harbor.

Nick Flynn, author of “Another Bullshit Night in Suck City.”
