Review
A heart-wrenching story of two young brothers on a long, hard road; a story that all of us should read * Barbara Trapido * What most distinguishes this book is the poetic power of the language. The landscape, the weather, the natural world and physical sensations are described with a shocking painterly intensity ... There is poetry on every page, as well as pity, and the poetry is not always in the pity but in the joy of being alive on this earth * Irish Times * Brothers does a fine, gripping job of conveying the immensity and hardship of the journey that many illegal immigrants ... must undergo ... this is an assured first novel * Metro * Presents us with the tragic reality behind the words 'refugee' and 'asylum-seeker' and brings home the terrible human consequences of war. Caroline Brothers' stark, unsentimental novel is one everyone should read * Daily Mail *
