A review by gerumoon
Brother, by David Chariandy

4.0

I hear Nina Simone's voice, "Ne me quitte pas, Il faut oublier. Tout peut s'oublier. Ne me quitte pas ... Ne me quitte pas ..."
Volume!
Then the song comes to an end, and all that's left is the friction of the needle on the record player.
Brother explores masculinity, family, race, and identity with such lyricism, and honesty.
