'Brothers' is an alternate take on the story of Jesus Christ, a beautifully written tale about Jesus' brother. With concise, precise sentences and poetic imagery the author pulls you inside this boy's mind . . . only then your skin begins to crawl and your jaw drops again and again and again and you realize you're caught in a ghastly nightmare and you cant get out, it's way too late to stop reading. YOU CANT STOP READING THIS BOOK. . . My friend Brother Dave (who HATED the story) stated it most accurately when he told me that as he read 'Brothers' he felt as if someone had shoved a knifeblade between his shoulder blades and was twisting it, growling, "Finish it! Finish it!" I concur. I finished it in two sittings, then read it again. You'll finish it too.
