Book of the Week—To & Fro
The two stories that make upLeah Hager Cohen’s latest?novel To & Fro meet halfway through the book with explanation—“Two Beginnings and No End”—and an invitation: “Flip this book.” If you started with To, you flip to read Fro. If you started with Fro, you flip to read To.
In less skilled hands, a novel with no clear beginning and end, which readers must flip to complete, could seem like a gimmick. But To and Fro is a gem: a captivating story about two 12-year-old girls living very different lives, on separate but parallel quests to explore some of life’s big questions. Among them: What is family, how do you combat loneliness, and what does it mean to belong to a place and a people?
Quote of the Week
“I believe that most of life is a function of your own actions. You can’t plan on chance, but if things happen, you need to roll with the punches. But still keep on your plan as best as possible.”
Morris Waitz, Centenarian and World War II veteran, in an interview with Pam Janis for Moment’s Wisdom Project.
