Named a best book of the year by Time Magazine

Praise for The Brothers:

"Remarkable...reminiscent of Lawrence Wright's The Looming Tower...Rather than the story of two lone-wolf jihadists, determined to wage war on their adopted country, the marathon bombing becomes a saga of both the Tsarnaev family and contemporary U.S. culture, in which all too often terror provokes an unreasonable response...For Gessen, the issue is not guilt or innocence...more essential is what the Tsarnaevs and their story tells us about who we have become. That she makes the case with grace and passion, while also basing it on rigorous reporting, is the triumph of the book." - Los Angeles Times

"Straightforward and captivating." - Janet Napolitano, The New York Times Book Review.
