Nobody has suffered quite like Antoni Dexter. Just ask him. For years, Antoni has blamed everyone else for the wreckage of his life: his ex-girlfriend, the courts, his family, his employers, his friends, and anyone else unfortunate enough to cross his path. According to Antoni, every failed relationship, every missed opportunity, and every monthly child support payment is proof that the world has been against him from the very beginning. But while Antoni is busy telling his side of the story, the truth is quietly waiting in the background. And the truth has a habit of showing up whether you're ready for it or not. A Man of Misfortune is a darkly comic story about blame, denial, and the devastating consequences of never admitting when you're wrong.

Seven older brothers. One crowded house. They gave him a place to live- but forgot to give him a home. Growing up, his life was perfectly organized on paper, but entirely empty in reality. To his seven older brothers, he was a responsibility to manage rather than a sibling to love. In the chaotic rush of looking after him, they completely missed him, leaving him to grow up isolated and invisible in the middle of a loud family. But you can't ignore a brother forever. When the emotional distance between them finally shatters, seven older brothers are forced to face the truth: they kept him safe, but they completely forgot to raise him. Now, they have to figure out how to stop being just guardians, and finally learn how to be big brothers.
