It's a dark, beautifully-written look at a guy working at Boston's Pine Street Inn whose dad happens to frequent the shelter. <br/><br/>For all the crappy memoirists out there, I'm glad we have writers like Flynn who remind us that the genre doesn't necessarily have to be a haven...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/4818959">more...</a>]]></body>
