"Mona's Eyes" by Tom Schlesser is a unique book, a "coming-of-age novel" and at the same time a fascinating journey into the world of art. Ten-year-old Mona suddenly loses her sight. Her sudden blindness soon passes, but the risk of relapse remains. Gradually, the ophthalmologist who treats the girl comes to the conclusion that the cause of such attacks of blindness may be the deep stress experienced by Mona. However, instead of the doctor's prescribed visits to a psychiatrist, her grandfather, a brilliant former photojournalist, takes Mona to Parisian museums once a week and shows her masterpieces of painting and sculpture, helping her to feel their beauty and be imbued with the wonder of art. Together with Mona and her irresistible grandfather, the reader walks through the museum halls, comprehending the history of the work of great masters from the Renaissance to the present day. At the same time, Mona has a tense everyday life with difficult problems, sometimes far from childish. Week by week, thanks to the horizons that have opened up to her, Mona matures and begins not only to understand art, but also to build her own relationships with the world.
