Over het boek
The younger brother, Tom Flowers (who is now 85), received his undergraduate degree from Furman University and his MFA from the University of Iowa. The older brother, Jesse Flowers, joined the service right after dropping out of high school and became a recluse soon after serving as a medic during the end of WWII. He lived in a dirt-floor shack without plumbing.
Tom and Jesse each took a different path in life to get past the harshness of growing up and the distance between them. This book contains a small sample of the large body of art they created over their lifetimes.
