NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERFrom the beloved film star and best-selling author of Then Again--a heartfelt memoir about Diane Keatons relationship with her younger brother, and a poignant exploration of the divergent paths siblings lives can take.When they were children in the suburbs of Los Angeles in the 1950s, Diane Keaton and her younger brother, Randy, were best friends and companions: they shared stories at night in their bunk beds; they swam, laughed, dressed up for Halloween. Their mother captured their American-dream childhoods in her diaries, and on camera. But as they grew up, Randy became troubled, then reclusive. By the time he reached adulthood, he was divorced, an alcoholic, a man who couldnt hold on to full-time work--his life a world away from his sisters, and from the rest of their family.Now Diane is delving into the nuances of their shared, and separate, pasts to confront the difficult question of why and how Randy ended up living his life on the other side of normal. In beautiful and fearless prose thats intertwined with photographs, journal entries, letters, and poetry--many of them Randys own writing and art--this insightful memoir contemplates the inner workings of a family, the ties that hold it together, and the special bond between siblings even when they are pulled far apart. Here is a story about love and responsibility: about how, when we choose to reach out to the people we feel closest to--in moments of difficulty and loss--surprising things can happen. A story with universal echoes, Brother & Sister speaks across generations to families whose lives have been touched by the fragility and otherness of loved ones--and to brothers and sisters everywhere. Review “[A] brave memoir . . . Keaton takes a long, hard look at her relationship with her younger brother, Randy, whose descent into mental illness parallels her climb to the stratosphere of stardom.” -Elisabeth Egan, The New York Times Book Review “[A] poignant story about two siblings, Brother & Sister is a fascinating exercise in writing a personal and methodical tale about someone who has come to feel, in some sense, like a stranger . . . Searching and rueful in tone, [it] departs from many celebrity memoirs in its focus.” -Hannah Giorgis, The Atlantic“With prose as quirky and affecting as her on-screen personas, Diane Keaton’s third memoir is the most wrenching yet as she tries to understand how her beloved younger brother Randy became a troubled recluse who lives ‘on the other side of normal.’” -O Magazine“Candid . . . A raw, often difficult read-Keaton doesn’t shy from sharing just how troubled a life [her brother] Randy led. She turns to her mother’s family archive, as well as Randy’s own extensive writings to try to make sense of her brother. In clean, piercing prose, Keaton examines midcentury American family dynamics and gender roles; she’s also honest about her own ambitions and how convenient it was to allow them to put distance between her and her family’s problems. ‘I want to have another chance at being a better sister,’ Keaton writes in the book’s final pages, and she’s embracing what time she and Randy have left to do just that.” -Barbara VanDenburgh, USA Today“A powerful account of one family’s struggle with mental illness.” -The New Yorker “Brother & Sister tenderly traces Keaton’s evolving relationship with her younger brother: a new book worth paying attention to.” -David Canfield, Entertainment Weekly “A deeply personal portrait of Diane Keaton’s family; also a beautiful look at the bonds and barriers of siblinghood.” -Katie Yee, Lit Hub “Fascinating . . . Brother & Sister is tough-minded, unvarnished and, finally, affecting in the extreme. Keaton had won fame and glory as a movie star even as her [younger] brother was struggling to find his footing-a fact not lost on her. Randy led a troubled life, including a failed marriage, a taste for alcohol and frustrated artistic ambiti
