Wow, this book! Excellent information, though in a lot of ways not really enjoyable because it's so difficult to read about all the sad parts of the Van Gogh's brother's lives.
I did really appreciate the portrayal of early family life, and the closeness of the family, while they were also very conservative. (Some writers seem to struggle with the concept that a family can be conservative and good at the same time...) Highly recommended for anyone who is interested in the life of Vincent Van Gogh, especially in the context of his family.
