Bandage My Wounds Bite Off My Tongue Robert Joseph Edmondson

Seven year old twins, Judas and Timothy, lose their mother and are left with a father they have never met. As the brothers grow up in 1960's Detroit, MI, they struggle to navigate their father's behavior which seems to favor one while distancing the other. Their natural loyalty to each other is pitted against their desperate desire for a father's love that appears to lead only to destruction and confusion. Bandage My Wounds is the atmospheric story of the coming of age of two brothers and the angst, turmoil, and desperation that boils up when innocent hearts long for the love of one who seems filled with contradictions. As life becomes bleak and closes in, the brother's great bond is the only hope for a path forward. Bandage My Wounds is a haunting and lyrical parable about the chaos and uncertainty of love in a dark world and how one small light is all one needs in order to find a path on this earth to follow.
