Mitch Albom is the author of the international bestsellers "Tuesdays with Morrie" and "For one more day", as well as six other books. He works as a newpaper columnist and a broadcaster, and serves on numerous charitable boards. He lives with his wife, Janine, in Michigan.
THE FIVE PEOPLE YOU MEET IN HEAVEN is a wonderfully moving fable that addresses the meaning of life, and life after death, in the poignant way that made TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE such an astonishing book. The novel's protagonist is an elderly amusement park maintenance worker named Eddie who, while operating a ride called the 'Free Fall', dies while trying to save a young girl who gets in the way of a falling cart that hurtles to earth. Eddie goes to heaven, where he meets five people who were unexpectedly instrumental in some way in his life. While each guide takes him through heaven, Eddie learns a little bit more about what his time on earth meant, what he was supposed to have learned, and what his true purpose on earth was. Throughout there are dramatic flashbacks where we see scenes from his troubled childhood, his years in the army in the Philippines jungle, and with his first and only love, his wife Marguerite. THE FIVE PEOPLE YOU MEET IN HEAVEN is the perfect book to follow TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE. Its compellingly affecting themes and lyrical writing will fascinate Mitch Albom's huge readership.
中国人,有很多忌讳,谈论死,则是传统中的忌讳之最 相反,外国人,倒是乐于把死作为引发教育和自省的重要素材。 最近,有两本关于“死”的书 一本,是《天蓝色的彼岸》,国外人写给小朋友的童话读物,介绍了一个小男孩的死后经历,没有给我留下太多影响 但是这本刚刚读完的《...

评分爱迪的一生,注定要有五个人留守。 一个问题,关于生命。从能量守恒定律来看,人死后又该如何转换。我们的生命,并非偶然。伴随着的是,某个生命的消逝。也算是一种交换吧。就像风和微风是紧密相连一样。生命不会毫无意义,每个诞生意味着一次机会,去开始,去尝试着...

不适合我。anyway 我读完了
评分天啊这本5,6年前人家送的书竟然现在才想起来要看!其实比起之前看的Tuesdays with Morrie,也是差不多类型的,但读起来不知道怎么D就没那么有感觉了。好像这个作者写的都是同类型的东西,其实一本足以~要不是今天在银行等了1个多小时估计我都无法专心把这本书看完。
评分old read circa 2011
评分邂逅:09年2月某日德里地铁里某个记不得名字的书店; 旅程:2009.5.19-2009.6.2.; 地点:复旦某安静五教教室、上海家中; 过程很好,结局略平。人生意义说教在任何时间任何地点都是必需品。这种说教很必须,但有时也很无聊(尤其是听多了)。好在文笔优美总还是平添了说教的可接受度的。
评分No life is a waste. The only time we waste is the time we spend thinking we are alone.
