Theo of Golden by Allen Levi
Tuesday, May 12, 8pm
Host: Sara M’s home (NW Rochester) or over Zoom for those who prefer, email
sharontjoyce@gmail.com for information and to RSVP.
Questions linger about Theo, a pleasant but mysterious stranger, after his arrival in the
southern city of Golden.
Who is he, and why is he here?
He arrives early one spring and by chance — or is it? — he visits a coffee shop where 92
framed pencil portraits are on display. Inspired, Theo sets out on a mission of purchasing all
the portraits one at a time and quietly bestowing them on their 'rightful owners.'
Stories are told; friendships are born; and lives are changed.
Theo of Golden is a beautifully crafted story about the power of creative generosity, the
importance of wonder to a purposeful life, and the far-reaching possibilities of anonymous
kindness.
