""A Brother Is A Stranger"" is a novel by Japanese author Toru Matsumoto. The story follows the life of a young man named Takeru, who is struggling to come to terms with his estranged relationship with his older brother, Kiyoshi. The two brothers grew up together, but as they got older, they grew apart and became strangers to each other. Takeru is haunted by memories of their past and feels a deep sense of loss and longing for the brother he once knew. The novel explores themes of family, identity, and the complexities of sibling relationships. As Takeru navigates through his own life, he begins to uncover the truth about his brother's mysterious disappearance and comes to understand the reasons behind their estrangement. Along the way, he also discovers secrets about his own identity and must confront the difficult truths about his family's past. Matsumoto's writing is introspective and poetic, and he skillfully weaves together multiple narrative threads to create a rich and complex story. ""A Brother Is A Stranger"" is a poignant and moving novel that explores the deep emotional bonds that exist between siblings, and the ways in which those bonds can be both broken and mended.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
