Written by English Author Daniel BrevittReviewed by Author Roy MurryThe human species, in Western cultures, has its customers by which a man must abide. When he deviates from them, all hell arises.In Mr. Brevitt's novel, located in the English suburbs, a man is to grow up, get married, and become a responsible member of a family. This is not always the case. Some men grow up sooner than others.Mr. Brevitt's writting brings out the best and the worst in the human posture. This is a story of two men coming of age, Micheal the narrator and his brother Robert. They are two different personalities brought up in the same environment with completely opposite goals in life.Robert, "The Man," is the life of every party and the person his cohorts want to be like in every way, an extrovert. Michael, on the other hand an introvert, wants to love the women he is with and has no long term goals.The brother's growth is similar to Kane and Able. At one point, it comes close to that end, but Michael is saved from Robert's deadly play by his father. This sets the tone of their love/hate relationship throughout the book into adulthood.Two events happen, one to each of them, that changes the relationship from cold, to warm, and then to somewhat of an equilibrium. Their families almost go into complete destruction over those events, until decisions are made by the brothers that change the situation for the best.This is in-depth character driven novel that will keep you reading on, as I did this rainy Sunday afternoon - well spent.Buy for down load: amzn.to/1wjhruA
