In the end, Quinn is more schizophrenic diversion than unified art – 76 erratic pages of personal revelation, arrogance, simple music-geeking and occasional bursts of compassion peppered with trenchant observation ("Commercial radio and MTV were the perfect soundtrack for the jail sentence of suburban adolescence," Licht writes).
