Amazon.com Review
From Matt Cohen, the author of Emotional Arithmetic, comes this account of two brothers. At once opposites--Paul is a bookseller with a passion for Charles Dickens, while Henry's interests run towards cars and racing--and inextricably bound by the ties of blood, the two brothers replay a story rooted in the tale of Cain and Abel. The story unfolds in a Toronto that most visitors never see--a seamy underbelly of pool halls and gas stations peopled with heroin addicts and cops gone bad.
