‘Keevil’s writing is unmissable . . . quite simply a brilliant writer’
Viv Groskop, author of The Anna Karenina Fix
‘No Good Brother is a paean to brotherly loyalty and a meditation on the things we can change and the things we must learn to love regardless. It is also the funniest and most exciting book I’ve read in years. A grand adventure in the spirit of Mark Twain, it is reckless and wild and beautiful, like something dreamed up by Cormac McCarthy and Hunter S Thompson on a drunken camping trip. It’s as big and as perfect as the prairie sky’
D.D. Johnston, author of Peace, Love & Petrol Bombs
‘A tender and at turns thrilling novel about grief and the way it seeps unshakably into the lives of the living. Keevil’s storytelling is both elegant and meaty and his prose stunning as per; I could almost taste the bitter sea air of Vancouver’s North Shore’
Rachel Trezise, author of Fresh Apples
‘Quite a story. Keevil’s prose proceeds with the laconic madness of a patient horse, and the same ability to buck and kick’
Cynan Jones, author of The Dig
For my brother
‘For I know that in me, that is,
in my flesh, dwelleth no good thing.’
Romans 7:18a
‘Man turns his back on his family,
well he just ain’t no good.’
Bruce Springsteen
