Book brother by david chariandy5/24/2023 One sweltering summer in the Park, a housing complex outside of Toronto, Michael and Francis are coming of age and learning to stomach the careless prejudices and low expectations that confront them as young men of black and brown ancestry. In luminous, incisive prose, a startling new literary talent explores masculinity, race, and sexuality against a backdrop of simmering violence during the summer of 1991. WINNER-Rogers' Writers' Trust Fiction Prize " Highly recommend Brother by David Chariandy-concise and intense, elegiac short novel of devastation and hope." -Joyce Carol Oates, via Twitter "A brilliant, powerful elegy from a living brother to a lost one, yet pulsing with rhythm, and beating with life." -Marlon James
