Summary:
"Puede que los hermanos gemelos Omar y Yaqub se parezcan mucho, pero no podrían ser más diferentes el uno del otro. El posesivo amor de su madre agita aún más las revueltas aguas que hay entre ellos y Yaqub es enviado desde Brasil al Líbano para vivir allí con unos parientes. Cinco años después regresa, convertido en un virtual desconocido, con unos padres que le aburren y sus tensiones con Omar no han cambiado en lo más mínimo. Los secretos familiares seducen a los lectores en esta historia profundamente relevante sobre identidad, amor, pérdida, engaño y la disolución de los lazos de sangre. Ambientada en la ciudad portuaria de Manaos, en la ribera del río Amazonas, Dos hermanos evoca la vibrante vida y la gran diversidad de Brasil. Basada en una obra del aclamado novelista Milton Hatoum que los galardonados novelistas gráficos Fábio Moon y Gabriel Bá reimaginan de manera asombrosa." -- Publisher's website.
"Twin brothers Omar and Yaqub may share the same features, but they could not be more different from one another. And the possessive love of their mother, Zana, stirs the troubled waters between them even more. After a brutally violent exchange between the young boys, Yaqub, "the good son," is sent from his home in Brazil to live with relatives in Lebanon, only to return five years later as a virtual stranger to the parents who bore him, his tensions with Omar unchanged. Family secrets engage the reader in this profoundly resonant story about identity, love, loss, deception, and the dissolution of blood ties. Set in the port city of Manaus on the riverbanks of the Amazon, Two Brothers celebrates the vibrant life and diversity of Brazil. Based on a work by acclaimed novelist Milton Hatoum, Two Brothers is stunningly reimagined by the award-winning graphic novelists Fabio Moon and Gabriel Ba."-- Provided by publisher (English edition).
