Barefoot to Avalon: A Brother’s Story, by David Payne
(Grove Press, 9780802123541, $26)
“This memoir is the most courageous book I have ever read. The author takes readers with him as he endeavors to make sense of his relationships with his parents and siblings, mental illness, personal shortcomings, and the journey to becoming a writer. The book leaves readers amazed at how much pain the heart can hold and still emerge peaceful, whole, and full of hope.” —Sharon Wheeler, Purple Crow Books, Hillsborough, NC
