ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
In Elizabeth Strout's novel, "The Burgess Boys," the quiet lives of the titular brothers, Jim and Bob, are disrupted when their sister Susan calls them for help. Susan's son, Zach, is facing serious legal trouble after a foolish prank targeting Somali immigrants in their small Maine town. The incident dredges up past family traumas, particularly a childhood accident that has haunted Bob and profoundly affected Jim. As the brothers grapple with the legal fallout of Zach's actions, their own personal struggles come to the forefront, forcing them to confront long-buried secrets and re-examine their relationships with each other and their families. The novel delves into themes of family dynamics, guilt, forgiveness, and the complexities of small-town life amidst social and cultural change.
