Description:"Kawai Strong Washburn’s “On the Swish and Roar” is a story of fraternal rivalry, of two brothers jockeying to be good sons, and of Dean, a high school basketball star, struggling to get a read on his fiercest himself. The comparison between sport and storytelling is not a new one in literary a game is a narrative unfolding in real time, there are loyalties and disappointments, a host of characters, villains and heroes. This particular story unfolds during a high school basketball season, a context seemingly ripe for such melodrama, but the comparison is insufficient. And in that way, this piece does what great stories should do. It captures more than a battle; it expresses a whole life wherein the ideas of “winner” and “loser,” “start” and “finish,” “fair” and “cheating,” fall short." - Lucie ShellyAbout the Author: Kawai Strong Washburn was born and raised on the Hamakua coast of the Big Island of Hawai’i.
