Tuesdays With Morrie: An old man, a young man, and life's greatest lesson

by Mitch Albom

THE GLOBAL PHENOMENON THAT HAS TOUCHED THE HEARTS OF OVER 9 MILLION READERS

'Mitch Albom sees the magical in the ordinary' Cecelia Ahern

Maybe it was a grandparent, or a teacher or a colleague? Someone older, patient and wise, who understood you when you were young and searching, and gave you sound advice to help you make your way through it? For Mitch Albom, that person was Morrie Schwartz, his college professor from nearly twenty years ago.

Maybe, like Mitch, you lost track of this mentor as you made your way, and the insights faded. Wouldn't you like to see that person again, ask the bigger questions that still haunt you?

Mitch Albom had that second chance. He rediscovered Morrie in the last months of the older man's life. Knowing he was dying of ALS - or motor neurone disease - Mitch visited Morrie in his study every Tuesday, just as they used to back in college. Their rekindled relationship turned into one final 'class': lessons in how to live.

Tuesdays with Morrie is a magical chronicle of their time together, through which Mitch shares Morrie's lasting gift with the world.

Don't miss Mitch's uplifting new novel THE STRANGER IN THE LIFEBOAT.

This will always be my favorite book in the world. I have a copy that I reread anytime I need a little guidance.

This book bored me. It's not that it's a bad book, I just found it boring. I felt like it was trying to be too deep and it over shot it a little. But I found it boring and it unremarkable. I read the whole book, and was involved in a few weeks of discussion on the book, but I am still just left with a nondescript feeling of boredom.

I read this in college and don't remember much about it, except I remember I wasn't that impressed.
