Their lives suddenly change with the arrival at their doorstep of a hulking, affable Canadian named Mike Flanagan, who declares himself the widower of Yaichi's estranged gay twin, Ryoji. Mike is on a quest to explore Ryoji's past, and the family reluctantly but dutifully takes him in. What follows is an unprecedented and heartbreaking look at the state of a largely still-closeted Japanese gay culture: how it's been affected by the West, and how the next generation can change the preconceptions about it and prejudices against it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e(Please note: This book is a traditional work of manga, and reads back to front and right to left.)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePART OF THE PANTHEON GRAPHIC LIBRARY\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"You Belong Books and Crafts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46653088661703,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0617\/3258\/5671\/files\/mybrothershusband.jpg?v=1781372446","url":"https:\/\/youbelongbooksandcrafts.com\/products\/my-brothers-husband-volumes-1-2-by-gengoroh-tagame","provider":"You Belong Books and Crafts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
