Based on the fact that most people who write don't even take there time to organize their post. I take out few seconds or minutes to say a big thank you whenever I go through a good post. Nice work.

I just finished "sister's brother" and it was a great read, with some of the best cover art I've seen in years.

Nothing is left for the parents but tears and prayer. The police order them to bury their son that same night, to avoid a disturbance on Friday, the holiest day of the Muslim week. The parents try to negotiate, but it’s no use: unless they drop their demands, Ibrahim will not be released. The parents know the officers will not hesitate to kill him. Sayed Bilal is finally buried just before midnight.

In the flower.

In this way,
and with a
delicate song,
there's a flower
where a fine
day appears
in the novel
seaside.

Immigration is the great unifier of man and womankind: before letters, phone calls, social media. It is hard to read this and not place oneself within the greater context of our social, political and human realities. I can't help but wonder if we need to reshift our focus from freedom, self-determination, and materialism to something more humane. Perhaps if we can all agree upon a definition of what a human is and what a human is not, travesties such as these can be averted. Bravo to you, Ms. Mengiste. You have given us a tale we can apply to any context in the world, to that member of our family who has risked everything for something more, for their right to be human. I think what many of us forget, the billions of us, is that this is a universal construct. We are all complicit, but we are also all in possession of real power that can make a difference. I hope this story, essay, moment in our collective history, is shared with all of those who refuse to see the power they have to make real changes in this world.

I loved this article! It perfectly captured the way we wiled away the days in my neighborhood too.

This was my Detroit, too, though I was born in '68: worldly and provincial, hot & sticky, Black and White and Jewish and ill-at-ease with itself.

I've often thought that Detroit's history as a city forecast a lot of what came to pass all over the US economically and socially in the 70s. It's enlightening to receive glimpses of that bigger picture, through the lens of a memoir; it's a living snapshot from a place that has a lot to say. Waiting for more...!

It is always said one picture encompasses lots of word and cinema is itself a series of pictures. I read your post,it is superb.

What a delightful story! When will the next installation of your childhood saga be published? I want to know how the growing tension between the parents develops (does it get resolved or spin out of control?) and how the dynamic between the siblings changes with the arrival of a fourth sister. Bravo Ms. Schuster!

I'm not from Detroit, but I was 10 in 1966 and I love what Lynda Schuster does to make me happy and melancholy all at once.

wonderful piece - flows so well, feels so natural. great writing.

Beautifully written. I'd love to read more of Jessica Thummel's stories on upcoming issues of Granta!

Excellent article! I can almost feel the oppressive Michigan heat as the writer describes her ride in the hot car. Ms Schuster's writing evokes a time and place since forgotten, where little girls can still dream about far away places not yet visited, rather than search them on Google. Wonderful!
