General note The International Booker Prize 2024 Longlisted. <br/><br/>Translated from Dutch as "Waar ik liever niet aan denk" by Sarah Timmer Harvey<br/><br/>What if one half of a pair of twins no longer wants to live? What if the other can’t live without them?<br/><br/><br/>This question lies at the heart of Jente Posthuma’s deceptively simple What I’d Rather Not Think About. The narrator is a twin whose brother has recently taken his own life. She looks back on their childhood, and tells of their adult lives: how her brother tried to find happiness, but lost himself in various men and the Bhagwan movement, though never completely.<br/><br/><br/>In brief, precise vignettes, full of gentle melancholy and surprising humour, Posthuma tells the story of a depressive brother, viewed from the perspective of the sister who both loves and resents her twin, struggles to understand him, and misses him terribly.
