For #advent recommends Day #5, @emilyrose_x , I humbly submit this memoir by Blake Bailey. I guess I‘m in a memoir state of mind.... This one is the iteration of a fraternal relationship, where one brother was very much in the shadow of another, until the other falls apart. If there was fraternal rivalry, it was displaced once the two came of age. I gave this book to my best friend—she found it quite depressing, though she did ⬇️
What‘s left of my family...what we lack in numbers, we make up for in a kind of twisted understanding of the eccentricities of each other....
I‘m always grateful for them...and happy to see them—I‘ll take what time they have for me and be plenty thankful for it! Happy Thanksgiving, Littens!!
Oh, btw, it‘s my mother, my nephew‘s fiancé, my nephew & my brother...and the cat warrants prime of place...as always!!
pickThis dark and heartbreaking work is the result of a master biographer chronicling his own life, and the life of his older brother Scott. As they grow older, both brothers deal with drug and substance abuse issues while their family unravels. His well-meaning father, insatiable mother, and erratic brother all fit into his definition of family, which may look uncomfortably familiar to the reader
