In May we are reading ‘Mona’s Eyes’ by Thomas Schlesser.
A thoroughly uplifting novel about a neurodivergent young man who unexpectedly builds a community and saves a friend in need by following—in a way only he can—his mother’s words of wisdom.
A best selling novel about a young girl, Mona, who faces potential blindness, leading her grandfather to take her on a year long journey through Paris, museums to experience 52 masterpieces of western art, teaching her about beauty, love, and loss through art history.
*** The hard copy of the book contains the corresponding photographs of the artwork. It is recommended that if listening by audiobook, to look up the works of art.
