Buy the Ticket, Take the Ride

Buy the Ticket, Take the Ride

In the highly personal tradition of Jenny Offill and Elena Ferrante, Buy the Ticket, Take the Ride is loosely based on Sweany's tragicomic teenage life growing up in Indiana and his later years working in the New York publishing industry. Hunter S. Thompson biographer William McKeen calls it, “ Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas meets Leave It to Beaver.” And bestselling author Keith Donohue adds, “For anyone who ever wonders about that guy in school who has more fun, more girls, more drinks, more sex, drugs, and rock and roll, more luck (and bad luck) of the Irish, Buy the Ticket, Take the Ride tells all. But behind every party is the hidden truth: that the world, if given time, will break your heart.”

Hunter S. Thompson biographer William McKeen called it, "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas meets Leave It to Beaver." And bestselling author Frank Bill adds, "In the vein of David Sedaris or Chuck Palahniuk, Brian Sweany has written a tight satirical story that has you bent over with laughter one moment, then wiping away the tears the next minute."
