Overview
El cerebro de mi hermano es un relato de la evolución de un padecimiento degenerativo en el seno de una familia. Recuerdos, emociones, temores y expectativas, el singular proceso de adaptación a lo impensable, el dolor de atestiguar la extinción de un ser querido, pero también la historia compartida, los años, los lugares, las pasiones conjuntas, la apertura a la conciencia del propio final, el ajuste de cuentas inexorable con lo vivido…
Rafael Pérez Gay ha escrito con El cerebro de mi hermano una de sus memorias personales más intensas, un informe final sobre los últimos momentos de José María Pérez Gay (1943-2013): filósofo, escritor, traductor y diplomático; hermano mayor y amigo literario.
Una reflexión descarnada y precisa sobre la condición humana, la enfermedad y la muerte.
