From the author of National Book Award finalist Charles and Emma comes an
incredible story of brotherly love.
The deep and enduring friendship between Vincent and Theo Van Gogh shaped both
brothers' lives. Confidant, champion, sympathizer, friend--Theo supported
Vincent as he struggled to find his path in life. They shared everything,
swapping stories of lovers and friends, successes and disappointments, dreams
and ambitions. Meticulously researched, drawing on the 658 letters Vincent wrote
to Theo during his lifetime, Deborah Heiligman weaves a tale of two lives
intertwined and the extraordinary love of the Van Gogh brothers.
