Book Synopsis The Half Brother by : Lars Saabye Christensen
Download or read book The Half Brother written by Lars Saabye Christensen and published by Skyhorse. This book was released on 2012-01-23 with total page 614 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the end of World War II, twenty-year-old Vera is brutally raped by an unknown assailant. From that rape is born a boy named Fred, a misfit who later becomes a talented boxer. Vera’s young son, Barnum, forms a special but bizarre relationship with his half brother, fraught with rivalry and dependence as well as love. “I should have been your father,” Fred tells Barnum, “instead of the fool who says he is.” It is Barnum, who is now a screenwriter with a fondness for lies and alcohol, who narrates his family’s saga. As he shares his family’s history, he chronicles generations of independent women and absent and flawed men whom he calls the Night Men. Among them is his father, Arnold, who bequeaths to Barnum his circus name, his excessively small stature, and a con man’s belief in the power of illusion. Filled with a galaxy of finely etched characters, this prize-winning novel is a tour de force and a literary masterpiece richly deserving of the accolades it has received.

Download or read book The Half Brother written by Holly LeCraw and published by Doubleday Canada. This book was released on 2015-02-17 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evocative of Dead Poets Society and The Starboard Sea, Holly LeCraw's The Half Brother is the story of secrets and betrayals between two brothers set amid the ivy-covered walls of an elite New England boarding school. When Charlie Garrett arrives as a young teacher at the Abbott School, he finds a world steeped in privilege and tradition. The school's green quads are lined by gothic stone halls, students dart across campus in blazers and bright plaid skirts. Fresh out of college and barely older than the students he teaches, Charlie longs to find his place in the rarefied world of Abbottsford. He gets to know the school chaplain, Preston Bankhead, and is drawn to Preston's beautiful young daughter, May, a student at the school. Then, Charlie's younger half brother, Nick, arrives on campus. Nick is, quite literally, the golden child, with sandy blond hair and a dazzling smile. Teachers welcome him warmly; students stay late to talk after class; and May Bankhead proves susceptible to his magnetic power. As Charlie sees the unmistakable connection between his first love and his half brother, he struggles with emotions far more complicated than mere jealousy. A terrible secret threatens to surface, and Charlie's peaceful campus life is in jeopardy. A complex, sexy, page-turning novel, LeCraw's latest asks how much we will sacrifice to protect those we love and how far we will go to keep the past safely buried.

Download or read book Half-Brother Or Son written by Karl Hesper and published by Booktango. This book was released on 2014-05-15 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Was the boy a half-brother or a son? Whatever he happened to be Seaton Domberger could not reject him as his own flesh and blood. Still more: he loved him and got along with him finely. All the same, he was in doubt as to the biological origin of this progeny in spite of DNA parental testing and other no less convincing proofs. What ailed him so much in this respect was that Joseph Barne, his own father, whom he had never seen, had raped, or tried to rape, the young woman who gave birth to the boy. She, on that account, used to say that she was not sure whether the child was the son of her older or younger lover. Such declarations did not fail to inflict pain on the latter but did not prevent him from becoming her legitimate husband. Seaton Domberger never succeeded in meeting his father to settle accounts with him and make him pay dear for the harm this dishonest man had done to his mother whom he held in great affection. On the other hand he could not help loving the son of his wife, who might well be his, and consequently he cooperated with him for years on end.

Book excerpt: A passionate, provocative story of complex family bonds and the search for identity set within the ivy-covered walls of a New England boarding school When Charlie Garrett arrives as a young teacher at the shabby-yet-genteel Abbott School, he finds a world steeped in privilege and tradition. Fresh out of college and barely older than the students he teaches, Charlie longs to leave his complicated southern childhood behind and find his place in the rarefied world of Abbottsford. Before long he is drawn to May Bankhead, the daughter of the legendary school chaplain; but when he discovers he cannot be with her, he forces himself to break her heart, and she leaves Abbott—he believes forever. He hunkers down in his house in the foothills of Massachusetts, thinking his sacrifice has contained the damage and controlled their fates. But nearly a decade later, his peace is shattered when his golden-boy half brother, Nick, comes to Abbott to teach—and May returns as a teacher as well. Students and teachers alike are drawn by Nick’s magnetism, and even May falls under his spell. When Charlie pushes his brother and his first love together, with what he believes are the best of intentions, a love triangle ensues that is haunted by desire, regret, and a long-buried mystery. With wisdom and emotional generosity, LeCraw takes us through a year that transforms both the teachers and students of Abbott forever. Page-turning, lyrical, and ambitious, The Half Brother is a powerful examination of family, loyalty, and love.
