The Sisters Brothers (Ecco)
Acclaimed novelist Patrick deWitt (Ablutions) makes his Skylight Books debut with his much-anticipated new novel The Sisters Brothers."deWitt's bang-up second novel (after Ablutions) is a quirky and stylish revisionist western. . . . With nods to Charles Portis and Frank Norris, deWitt has produced a genre-bending frontier saga that is exciting, funny, and, perhaps unexpectedly, moving." --Publishers Weekly
"A masterful, hilarious picaresque that keeps company with the best of Charles Portis and Mark Twain, The Sisters Brothers is a relentlessly absorbing feat of novelistic art."--Wells Tower, author of Everything Ravaged, Everything Burned
Patrick deWitt was born in 1975 in British Columbia, Canada. He has also lived in California, Washington, and Oregon, where he currently resides with his wife and son. He is the author of the critically acclaimed Ablutions: Notes for a Novel.
