Although this terrific book is technically an essay collection, it reads much like a continuous narrative memoir, focused on the author's relationship with his father and brother, but also with other significant figures in his life. And a difficult life it was, too, at least growing up in the hardscrabble confines of his family's Memphis home. Beautifully written and at times quite emotional. Highly recommended.
