Winner Blurb:
When his older brother enlists in 1943, Linus Muller assumes family responsibilities that introduce him to “Mister Orange,” Dutch painter Piet Mondrian. At once a coming of age story and a celebration of the power of art, “Mister Orange” beautifully captures Linus’ awaking to the larger world around him.
“This poignant story of a large working-class family living in New York City tells how “Mister Orange” and WWII change Linus’ life,” said Maureen White, Batchelder Award chair.
