“Could this be my book of the year?
Shortlisted for the Booker but sadly not the winner. Canadian author Patrick deWitt conjures up a terrific story.
The Sisters Brother are two hired killers during the US gold rush western period, but this isn’t a regular black/white hats western.
An inventive and absorbing page turning treat. How soon will the Cohen brothers make this into a wonderful film?
Score 8/10
