No Book but the World by Leah Hager Cohen
At the edge of a woods, on the grounds of a defunct “free school,” Ava and her brother, Fred, shared a dreamy and seemingly idyllic childhood—a world defined largely by their imaginations and each other’s presence. Everyone is aware of Fred’s oddness or vague impairment, but his parents’ fierce disapproval of labels keeps him free of evaluation or intervention, and constantly at Ava’s side.
A harrowing beautifully written book that asks the question are we our brothers keeper? When Fred is accused of a horrific crime Ava his sister in a panic tries to figure out what happened and how much responsibility does she have to her brother This is a book that raises many questions and makes you think.
