Description
The Book of Jonas A Novel by Stephen Dau is a powerful and poignant story about memory, war, and its devastating impact on individuals and communities.
After his family's tragic death in an international conflict, 15-year-old Jonas is sent to America as part of an international relief organization. As he struggles to adapt to his new life with a foster family and navigate the complexities of high school, Jonas meets Rose Henderson, the mother of the soldier who saved his life.
As Jonas forms a connection with Rose, he uncovers a shocking and painful secret that challenges everything he thought he knew about his past. With spare, evocative prose, Dau crafts a novel that explores the human cost of war and the long-lasting effects it can have on those affected.
