The Book of Jude

(4) YA Set against the 1989 Velvet Revolution in Czechoslovakia, this novel is a complex portrayal of politics and mental illness. After Jude's Mormon family moves to Prague for a yearlong fellowship, Jude suffers increasing mental breaks from reality. Because depictions of Jude's irrational moments are so compelling and dark, readers may be skeptical about her abrupt healing.
