A deeply humane story that lingers long after the last page is turned. Gayle Forman, New York Times bestselling author of If I Stay
As a skyscraper engineer, Jonathan Brooks, has always believed that a skyscraper is either made correctly or incorrectly, and all problems have solutions. He has yet to learn that people are made differently.
When his son Theo fell ill with encephalitis at fourteen months old, he and his wife Carly were devastated to learn that Theo's setbacks would be long-lasting, possibly permanent. Theo is now seven years old and not yet walking or fully verbal, and Jonathan and Carly are living apart. The broken family's world is upturned by the arrival of Aimee, a complicated young Irish woman who begins working as Theo's nanny in ways Jonathan does not trust. But as Aimee brings about new advancements for Theo their bond grows, until Aimee's own personal crisis rocks the family and shows them all a new way forward.
Confuse the Wind is a book about our human interdependence and how we desperately need one another to survive and hopefully thrive.
