À propos de cet audio

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

“[A] word-of-mouth smash hit.” The New York Times

One spring morning, a stranger arrives in the small southern city of Golden. No one knows where he has come from…or why…

His name is Theo. And he asks a lot more questions than he answers.

Theo visits the local coffeehouse, where ninety-two pencil portraits hang on the walls, portraits of the people of Golden done by a local artist. He begins purchasing them, one at a time, and putting them back in the hands of their “rightful owners.” With each exchange, a story is told, a friendship born, and a life altered.

A story of giving and receiving, of seeing and being seen, Theo of Golden is a beautifully crafted novel about the power of creative generosity, the importance of wonder to a purposeful life, and the invisible threads of kindness that bind us to one another.

Editorial Review

Absolute gold
Theo of Golden has been making quiet but ever-swelling waves among readers since it was self-published two years ago. A fable of friendship with kindness at its core, this story follows an octogenarian who arrives, rather mysteriously, in a small town in Georgia and discovers a trove of drawings in a local coffee shop. As Theo reconnects pictures with their true owners, he sprinkles inspiration, revelation, and hope on the listener like gold dust. Emmy-nominated actor and narrator David Morse brings the exact right amount of gentle gravitas to the thoughtful, ever-curious Theo. —Emily C, Audible Editor

The author made Theo come alive with his eloquent vocabulary and love for writing and encouraging others. It was funny, thought provoking, made me smile and made me cry!!! Bravo!!!

Outstanding piece of writing. Hit my core! Will never forget Theo!

This is one of the most beautiful stories I have read. The message of kindness, love and being a good human evoke a strong emotional response to the main character, Theo. His gentleness and generosity are abound. The revelation at the end is worth the wait. This is a must read.
