A sensitive portrayal of loss, My Brother is the story of a child whose brother emerges from the depths of the fjord on the end of her father's fishing line. Though grieving in different ways, the child and her father find comfort in remembering their brother and son together. Øyvind Torseter's wobbly line drawings and dark cross-hatched blotches sprawl across pages bathed in warm reds and oranges, melancholy blues, and hopeful greens. Accompanied by Torseter's captivating images, Laura Djupvik's poetic lines provide an opening for children and adults to talk about grief and the power of memory.
