The first collection of poems by author Ryan Reeves. In The Time, Reeves poetically recounts memories and stories as he takes you on a trip through a lonely and misunderstood childhood, a broken and detached family, and a forgiving look inward. With poems from the time my mother cried in the car to the time kfc tried to murder me, Reeves brilliantly walks the line between humor and heartbreak in this dazzling debut collection of poems.
