Reviews

""Flynn recalls and records in a stunningly beautiful cascade of images...A striking collection of memories that will mystify, enlighten, trouble, and amaze."" -- ""Kirkus Reviews (starred review)"" ""Flynn's life is so volcanic and his writing style so kinetic and punchy that others will be drawn into this gripping personal narrative."" -- ""Publishers Weekly"" ""In The Ticking Is the Bomb, poet and memoirist Nick Flynn, author of the cult favorite [Being Flynn], marries the tragedies he survived in childhood with being an expectant father, gorgeously focusing these themes within the larger lens of the uses of terror and torture and notions of freedom and justice in post-9/11 America."" -- ""Elle"" ""Scott Brick...does a marvelous job of maneuvering through the narrative's various parts, keeping his delivery rhythmically consistent while simultaneously projecting the right amount of emphasis and emotion. Brick's performance will hold listeners' attention...For those liking experimental nonfiction, memoirs, and political reflections."" -- ""Library Journal (starred review)""
