THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING PHENOMENON

A Katie Couric Book Club Pick • A Jen Hatmaker Book Club Pick

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

“A treasure.” —Hoda Kotb

To Kill a Mockingbird for this generation.” —The Dallas Morning News

One spring morning, a stranger named Theo arrives in the small Southern city of Golden. He doesn’t explain much about where he came from or why he’s there—but when he visits the local coffeehouse, where pencil portraits of the people of Golden hang on the walls, he begins purchasing them, one at a time, and giving each portrait to the person depicted. In exchange, he asks only for the person’s story. And so portrait by portrait, person by person, secrets are revealed, regrets are shared, and ordinary lives are profoundly altered.

A story of giving and receiving, of seeing and being seen, Theo of Golden is an unforgettable novel about the power of generosity, the importance of connection, and the quiet miracles that happen when we choose kindness and wonder.

Narrated by multiple Emmy and Tony award nominee David Morse, with a brand-new afterword about the writing of Theo of Golden, narrated by the author himself.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A feel-good story about missed opportunities, regrets, and reconciliation."
"Theo, a charming, mysterious elderly man, wanders into a cozy coffee shop in Golden, Georgia. He notices graceful pencil portraits hanging on the wall and vows to buy them and gift them to the subjects. Actor David Morse beautifully portrays Theo with a gentle melancholy and deep empathy for everyone he meets on his journey. Theo befriends the talented artist, and, with Morse’s distinctive style and heartfelt emotion, a truly inspiring and uplifting story unfolds. Theo carries secrets, and Morse thoughtfully slows the pace, lending emotional weight to each encounter as the inevitable climax approaches, when all will be revealed."

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
