The blurb for the paperback edition lists ''Brother of Sleep'' as a ''spiritual descendant of Patrick Suskind's Perfume''. If it reminded me of anything it was probably ''The Art of Hearing Heartbeats'' by Jan-Phillip Sendker, though for my taste it didn't quite measure up to what was probably my favourite book of 2013.
