Close Enough to Touch

Colleen Oakley’s “Close Enough to Touch” narrates the tale of Jubilee Jenkins, a remarkable librarian who suffers from an unusual sensitivity to human contact. She may practically die from any skin-to-skin touch. Jubilee chooses to encounter the world once more after withdrawing into solitude for almost ten years.

Equipped with her faithful bicycle, long sleeves, and gloves. The struggling parent Eric Keegan and her connect on a deeper level than just physicality when their lives intersect. It’s a touching story about vulnerability, love, and second chances.
