Publisher's Summary
Brothers Barry and Tommy Moser were born of the same parents in Chattanooga,
Tennessee, slept in the same bedroom, went to the same school, and were
both poisoned by their family's deep racism and anti-Semitism. But as
they grew older, their perspectives and their paths grew further and
further apart. Barry left Chattanooga for New England and a life in
the arts; Tommy stayed put and became a mortgage banker. From attitudes
about race to food, politics, and money, the brothers began to think
so differently that they could no longer find common ground. For nearly
40 years, there was more strife between them than affection.
After one particularly fractious conversation when Barry was in his
late 50s and Tommy was in his early 60s, their fragile relationship
fell apart. With the raw emotions that so often surface when we talk
of our siblings, Barry recalls how they were finally able to traverse
that great divide and reconcile their troubled brotherhood before it
was too late.
We Were Brothers, written by preeminent artist Barry Moser, is a powerful
story of reunion told with candor and regret that captures the essence
of sibling relationships, with all their complexities, contradictions,
and mixed blessings.
