Description
In this unflinching memoir, Nick Flynn recounts his complex relationship with a father he barely knew—a charismatic con man and poet who drifted in and out of his life, often from behind prison bars. When Flynn takes a job at a homeless shelter in Boston, he unexpectedly encounters his father again, now also a resident of the streets. The narrative unfolds as a raw exploration of addiction, poverty, and the desperate search for connection, charting the parallel paths that led father and son to the same place of profound vulnerability.
