THE SISTERS BROTHERS

So many people enthused to me about this book, it received so many positive reviews, and it was short-listed for the Man Booker Prize, so in the end while on holiday I got myself a copy and read it. And I have to say I loved it.
From the terrific cover and great title to the captivating story I was enchanted; and even though the story is about a couple of hired killers,and is set in California during the gold rushes of the 1850's, it had me laughing out loud on several occasions.
I reckon the Cohen Brothers could make it into a great movie - that would have a nice ring to it - Cohen Brothers make the Sisters Brothers!
