Another Bullshit Night in Suck City
Being Flynn
by
Nick Flynn
I guess they couldn't call the movie
'Another Bulls**t Night in Suck City'
the original title of this
darkly funny and poetic memoir.
Nick Flynn met his father
when he was working as a
caseworker in a homeless
shelter in Boston.
“…some part of me knew
he would show up,
that if I stood in
one place long enough
he would find me,
like you're taught to do
when you're lost.
But they never taught us
what to do if both
of you are lost,
and you both end up in
the same place, waiting…”
