Reviews

"Chico Buarque, Brazilian pop legend and one of the founders of Tropicalismo, has developed into an intriguing and inventive novelist as well . . . The language of My German Brother is musical and serpentine, as he unravels a tale that is part historical mystery, part intellectual and sexual coming-of-age." --Anderson Tepper, Vanity Fair "A fascinating, shape-shifting piece of autofiction . . . There's more than a whiff of Sebald to this potent, meandering mixture of text and image, fact and fiction." --Luiza Sauma, The Telegraph "[A] wistful novel . . . Moving . . . [A] poignant exploration of the past that lies tucked away between the pages of musty books." --Kirkus
