'A heartbreaking exploration of a family fractured by civil war.
This beautiful, nuanced novel follows a young doctor caught within
conflicting ideologies as she tries to save lives. I couldn't put
this book down' BRIT BENNETT, bestselling author of THE VANISHING
HALF Sixteen-year-old Sashi wants to become a doctor. But over the
next decade, as a vicious civil war tears through her hometown of
Jaffna, her dream takes her on a different path as she sees those
around her, including her four beloved brothers and their friend,
get swept up in violent political ideologies and their
consequences. Desperate to act, she must ask herself: is it
possible for anyone to move through life without doing harm? "With
immense compassion and deep moral complexity, V. V. Ganeshananthan
brings us an achingly moving portrait of individual and societal
grief. "I want you to understand," the narrator of BROTHERLESS
NIGHT insists, and by the end of this blazingly brilliant novel, we
do: that in a world full of turmoil, human connections and shared
stories can teach us how - and as importantly, why - to survive"
CELESTE NG, bestselling author of LITTLE FIRES EVERYWHERE
"Stunningly great" Curtis Sittenfeld, bestselling author of RODHAM,
via Twitter 'V.V. Ganeshananthan's novel Brotherless Night reveals
the moral nuances of violence, ever belied by black-and-white
terminology' New York Times
