The Sister's Brothers is simply laying in wait to become a movie. It will be the next True Grit: a great book into a decent movie. The extreme foreign nature of the world that the brothers live in is fascinating, where a toothbrush is a nonentity and you look like a "foaming, rabid dog" when using such a foreign object. The give and take of Eli and Charlie is tense, awkward, and strangely loving, and it examines the complicated nature of a Brotherhood. Overall, great read!
