Then he meets Kim, a transgender runaway who joins Grimace on his heroic quest. Is Grimace receiving aluminum missives from the gods, or is he a madman? Kim will find out soon enough on a strange journey they’ve been destined to share.

Amazing

Loved the story so much and Brian Tyree Henry certainly should do more audio books

Great listening

Wow I really enjoyed this listen and is this the end-of the book i want to know what happened to both of them

Brian Tyree Henry is THE BEST Narrator

I enjoyed the story but absolutely LOVED the performance. BTH brought life to every character!

Every story in this series is excellent

This one is particularly creative with some NYC nostalgia in the mix. Great performance from the reader as well

Interesting

The story held my attention and made me think of what my life would be like as a homeless person but to a certain extent I was able to understand the characters. I’m not homeless but we’re both always in survival mode waiting to go home

Great storytelling

Really found this story refreshing. Just great storytelling. I highly recommend it to anyone who appreciates storytelling no matter the genre

I wish there was more!

I have heard a few good narrators on Audible and Bryan Tyree Henry does not disappoint. Homelessness is a very serious issue but this story won't leave a listener overwhelmed with the fact of the issue/ problem.

Imaginative

The premise was unique and well performed. Cool way to spend an hour. I liked it!

Excellent narration

I will listen to this again and again…. The narrator brought so much life to this beautifully written story. Loved it!

I got goosebumps!

I was drawn into this story with all the compassion I possess, hoping for a better life. Wishing life wasn’t what it was. Glad to find out there was better, willful excepting the destruction that happened. Mostly thrilled for the survival and ascension.
