Resumen
The new novel from the Orange Prize-winning author of We Need to Talk About Kevin. Pandora has looked up to her older brother Edison since they were children. Now she revels in the anonymity of her suburban Iowa life, while her brother basks in the limelight as a New York jazz musician. But when Edison arrives in Iowa, suddenly in need of a place to stay, Pandora literally doesnt recognize him. The once slim, hip pianist has gained hundreds of pounds. What happened? Soon Edisons appalling diet and know-it-all monologues are driving Pandora and her husband Fletcher insane. And its only a matter of time before Fletcher delivers his wife an ultimatum, its him or me. With Shrivers distinctive wit and ferocious energy, Big Brother not only examines why we overeat, but asks more pressingly still: just how much should you sacrifice for someone who refuses to be saved?<
