Description

The Last Brother by Nathacha Appanah is set against the backdrop of World War II, but for one young boy, the war feels far away. On his small island, Raj's life is simple: he spends time with his mother and helps his father in his work as a prison guard. However, when a ship arrives carrying Jewish exiles from Europe, Raj's world is turned upside down. Among these newcomers is David, a boy of the same age who has lost everything. As they form an unlikely friendship, Raj takes it upon himself to help David escape from the island's prison. Together, they face treacherous terrain and devastating storms, battling hunger and malaria along the way. Their bond is forged in the fire of adversity, but can it survive the ultimate test? As their journey unfolds, Appanah masterfully weaves a tale of hope, resilience, and the unbreakable bonds of friendship.
