"Brothers adeptly synthesizes stories gathered as a reporter in France into a forceful account of two prototypical lost boys as they hazard 'the great lottery' of a journey across Europe... Brothers has the seasoned journalist's eye for idiosyncratic detail and a sense for the riveting turnabouts that keep readers as off balance as her characters." --New York Times Book Review
"Brothers shines a powerful light on the shadowy world of cross-border refugees in this compelling and empathetic account of two children seeking a chance at life a long way from home." --Library Journal
"Caroline Brothers novel about two Afghani brothers making their way to London offers a moving account of [asylum seekers]...15-year-old Aryan and his eight-year-old brother Kabir face a litany of horrors... Fortunately there is light as well as darkness. Random acts of kindness punctuate the narrative. An Iranian-American couple buy the boys new clothes. A Greek grandmother welcomes them to her table. The book's emotional heart is the relationship between the brothers -- Aryan forced to assume the role of a parent, Kabir exiled so long that he can't remember the face of his dead mother. Brothers' elegant prose holds sentimentality at bay, complementing some impressive reportage." --Financial Times
