        One Brother Shy

        by Terry Fallis

        From the two-time winner of the Leacock Medal for Humour --a funny, tender novel about a young man searching for his twin brother.  Alex MacAskill, 25, painfully shy, was raised by a single mother. He never knew his father, not even his name. When she dies, an envelope left for Alex reveals a secret that instantly changes his life and sets him on a search for the identical twin brother he never knew he had. Eventually reunited with his twin Matthew Patterson, living in London, the brothers are launched on a mission to find their father. An initially rocky but ultimately happy reunion of father and sons leaves Alex with one final task. He must deal with "Gabriel" a code name for an event that traumatized him in his high school years. It is too funny and humiliating to spoil it for you here.  One Brother Shy is a poignant and comic tale of identical twins separated at birth, yet testifying to the strength of family ties and the healing power of humour.

His mother, the family’s tower of strength, is undergoing cancer treatment, while his father Sylvanus takes refuge in drinking. Threatening their fragile balance are two men who menace the commu­nity. One is the feral Trap. The other is the abusive Clar Gillard, whose vicious insanity was glimpsed when he tied his wife to a chair and sprayed her with oven cleaner. Kyle and his father have a nasty altercation with Clar and when he is found dead on their doorstep, they are suspects in his murder. Desperately, father and son struggle to protect the other. Donna Morrissey's novel  takes on a mythic timelessness in this powerful story weaving love, grief and murder. With such simple materials she has fashioned a masterpiece.
