What about Anna?

(2) YA Translated by John Nieuwenhuizen. Anna can't know that certain coincidences are the makings of a signal from her older brother, dead five years of AIDS. Another older brother, Michael, has been missing for two years in the former Yugoslavia, and now people and messages from Anna's past are suggesting that Michael may be alive. Sometimes diffuse with a shifting point of view, this Dutch import offers a spiky heroine up to the task of grappling with hard questions.
