a beautiful brotherhood tale
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
The author chronicles the life of Stu and his brother Dan through almost a lifetime. The chapters, sort of stand-alone short stories, swing between tragedy (loss of loved ones), the mundane (can't remember!), the extraordinary (a cat resurection!) and eventually (or to begin with) the death and grieving of a brother. What's great about Mr Dixon's fiction is that the reader can't be unreceptive. Here, you are carried forward and backward in time, just like in a Nicholas Roeg's movie. You have to put together all the pieces of the puzzle and make your own story. And the story is beautiful. In case i didn't make myself clear : BUY THIS BOOK! :-)
