This book, is sort of written half-poetry, half-prose. A young man marries a woman whose three younger brothers are all diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy from a young age. This book is about his wife's brothers, how they lived and the people around them. The prose is weird sometimes, but it's worth a read.

A beautiful book about a strong, beautiful family. The writing style is a little different, possibly due to the author being a poet. The poetry included makes for an interesting touch, as well.
