( ) This was an interesting look into Diane Keaton's relationship with her brother Randy, her mother's relationship with Randy, the effects that Randy's illness has had on the family and Randy's indifference. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book, I like that Diane shares this story using her mother and brother's words as well as her own. Family dynamics are always different and you often don't find out the other person's perspective until they have passed away. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

HTML:From the beloved film star and best-selling author of Then Againâ??a heartfelt memoir about Diane Keaton's relationship with her younger brother, and a poignant exploration of the divergent paths siblings' lives can take. When they were children in the suburbs of Los Angeles in the 1950s, Diane Keaton and her younger brother, Randy, were best friends and companions: they shared stories at night in their bunk beds; they swam, laughed, dressed up for Halloween. Their mother captured their American-dream childhoods in her diaries, and on camera. But as they grew up, Randy became troubled, then reclusive. By the time he reached adulthood, he was divorced, an alcoholic, a man who couldn't hold on to full-time workâ??his life a world away from his sister's, and from the rest of their family. Now Diane is delving into the nuances of their shared, and separate, pasts to confront the difficult question of why and how Randy ended up living his life on "the other side of normal." In beautiful and fearless prose that's intertwined with journal entries, letters, and poetryâ??many of them Randy's own writing and artâ??this insightful memoir contemplates the inner workings of a family, the ties that hold it together, and the special bond between siblings even when they are pulled far apart. Here is a story about love and responsibility: about how, when we choose to reach out to the people we feel closest toâ??in moments of difficulty and lossâ??surprising things can happen. A story with universal echoes, Brother & Sister speaks across generations to families whose lives have been touched by the fragility and "otherness" of loved onesâ??and to brothers an Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
