Books We've Read Lately: Vincent and Theo : The Van Gogh Brothers

This is a bittersweet tale about the relationship and lives of Vincent and Theo Van Gogh. Although you may already know their story, Deborah Heiligman extensively researched the Van Goghs to examine the lives of both brothers who loved each other beyond measure even when they had violent disagreements.

Read this if you like art, stories about family, biographies, or just want to read excellent writing from an author who has won a Printz Honor Award and the YALSA Excellence in Nonfiction Award for this book. This one will stay with you for a while.

It's available at the Sentobia and Oxford Northwest libraries. It can be sent to our DeSoto campus library if you are a member of our Northwest community.
