description: For Pandora cooking is a form of love. Alas her husband Fletcher a self-employed high-end cabinetmaker now spurns the toxic dishes that hed savored through their courtship and devotes hours each day to manic cycling. Then when Pandora picks up her older brother Edison at the airport she doesnt recognize him. In the years since theyve seen one another the once slim hip New York jazz pianist has gained hundreds of pounds. What happened? After Edison has more than overstayed his welcome Fletcher delivers his wife an ultimatum: Its him or me.Rich with Shrivers distinctive wit and ferocious energy Big Brother is about fat: an issue both social and excruciatingly personal. It asks just how much sacrifice we'll make to save single members of our families and whether it's ever possible to save loved ones from themselves.
