Jason Melvin has created a staggering work of grief and acceptance, heartbreaking in its artful recounting of the unimaginable, and profoundly comforting to those who can fathom to understand. Tears will come, your chest will seize up, but like the life-altering event its author bravely confronts, after reading this book you will find yourself capable of withstanding more than you once believed possible. A stark reminder that we are never alone in our suffering, Brother, is the reason why man first dreamt up the written word.
- Scott Laudati Jason Melvin's chapbook, Brother, is a beautiful ode to familial love, to continuity of life and lack thereof. This chapbook allows the bending of time between past and present, yet it reminds the reader that, truly, a timeline is non-existent; the poems join in an amazing woven form, ultimately shaping this as a timeless memoir. Each poem functions on its own, as well as connects in such a beautiful nexus with all the other poems...
