Beautifully told, this is the true story of the relationship between brothers Theo and Vincent van Gogh.

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.

"With empathy, humor and insight, Heiligman proves the truth of the maxim that behind every great man there is indeed a great woman. There have been many Darwin-themed books published this year . . . this is clearly the best." --NPR.org

"This is the 'wow' biography on the Darwins--meticulously researched, richly rendered and rewarding every step of the way." --San Francisco Chronicle
