The Hundred Brothers (Paperback)

The Hundred Brothers Book Description

There's Rob, Bob, Tom, Paul, Ralph, and Phil; Siegfried, the sculptor in burning steel; blind Albert and ninety-three-year-old Hiram; Foster, the New Age psychoanalyst, and Maxwell, the tropical botanist, who, since returning from the rain forest, has seemed a little screwed up somehow. Donald Antrim assembles them - along with their eighty-nine equally eccentric brothers - in the decaying library of their family estate. Before cocktails are served, Maxwell is cataleptic, Virgil hysterical, and genealogist Doug has made off with doctor Barry's medicine kit. Supper gives way to indoor football, a conversation with a dog, and ritual sacrifice.
