Publisher's Synopsis
Winner of the Nordic Prize 2002, The Half Brother has already sold more than 150,000 copies in Norway alone and is set to become an international sensation within the year. This literary marvel tells the story of an ordinary Norwegian family in the 1960s, set apart by extraordinary family members, and of two half-brothers leading very different and separate lives, until they are brought together again at their mother's deathbed... 'At Frankfurt, Arcadia trounced rivals with a pre-emptive bid for World English rights to The Half-Brother' - Bookseller
