Review of We the Animals (2018) by Joe Morgenstern for Wall Street Journal — 21 Aug 2018

This exquisite debut feature, based on a poetic debut novel by Justin Torres, is a tumbling evocation of a volatile family, narrated by one of three young brothers living in upstate New York with their Puerto Rican father and white mother.
