Reviews
Detachment is a startling portrait of a real Modern Family--cobbled together across continents, haunted by old wars and buried trauma, held together by the stubborn human need for love and connection, for belonging. Maurice Mierau's attempt to understand the people who made him what he is, while holding his own family together, is completely compelling: brutally honest, harrowing and compassionate. -- Michael Crummey, author of Galore
