“A boldly original piece of fiction, plumbing the depths of the human condition with plenty of humor along the way.”—Entertainment Weekly

Now available in a convenient pocket-sized portable Nomad Edition, the poignant and triumphant story about how love, friendship, and persistence can change a life forever.

Yunjae was born with a brain condition called Alexithymia that makes it hard for him to feel emotions like fear or anger. He does not have friends—the two almond-shaped neurons located deep in his brain have seen to that—but his devoted mother and grandmother provide him with a safe and content life. Their little home above his mother’s used bookstore is decorated with colorful Post-it notes that remind him when to smile, when to say “thank you,” and when to laugh.

Then on Christmas Eve—Yunjae’s sixteenth birthday—everything changes. A shocking act of random violence shatters his world, leaving him alone and on his own. Struggling to cope with his loss, Yunjae retreats into silent isolation, until troubled teenager Gon arrives at his school, and they develop a surprising bond.

As Yunjae begins to open his life to new people—including a girl at school—something slowly changes inside him. And when Gon suddenly finds his life at risk, Yunjae will have the chance to step outside of every comfort zone he has created to perhaps become the hero he never thought he would be.

Readers of R. J. Palaccio’s Wonder and Benjamin Ludwig’s Ginny Moon will appreciate this “resonant” story that “gives Yunjae the courage to claim an entirely different story.” (Booklist, starred review).

This wristlet is perfect for events where you don’t want to bring a whole purse. It fits my iPhone 12 Pro Max and has an inside zipper pocket as well as pockets for credit cards. Sleek and stylish.

Gorgeous!
Size: Medium, Color: Rose Gold
I love this purse, but I think it's appropriate mostly for evening use. As another reviewer has already said, it is more on the coppery side than the rose, but it is still beautiful, so I awarded it five stars. It is very high quality, and it arrived very quickly. I don't think I'll take it to synagogue, though. I think this is more of a date night or special occasion purse. It would be great for dinner dates, concerts (like the symphony or the opera), weddings, proms, etc. It's not something that would pair well with jeans or something you'd take to a picnic. It would make a lovely gift, and it's big enough to hold my phone, lip gloss, and a credit card. You don't want to put too much in it because it looks best flat.
