"Tuesdays with Morrie" de Mith Albom


así se llama la última novela que he terminado de leer, llevaba ya algunos días pensando en escribir algo acerca de este libro pero la verdad es que no se cómo hacerlo, ni siquiera se si hacerlo !!!!!

Gracias al autor por contarnos tu historia, y gracias a Morrie por esas enseñanzas de la vida tan humanas, tan reales, tan cristianas, tan básicas ... tanto tanto que a veces nos olvidamos de la esencia de la vida y de las cosas que realmente son importantes.

Una historia repleta de enseñanzas, cada linea y cada palabra de Morrie te enseña a no tener miedo de nada, de absolutamente nada, incluso de la propia muerte.

Muy recomendable y se lee en un par de tardes !!

Aquí dejo algunas reseñas del libro y de otras novelas del autor.

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, helped you see the world as a more profound place, 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, and the world seemed colder. Wouldn't you like to see that person again, ask the bigger questions that still haunt you, receive wisdom for your busy life today the way you once did when you were younger?

Mitch Albom had that second chance. He rediscovered Morrie in the last months of the older man's life. Knowing he was dying, Morrie visited with Mitch 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. Now the best-selling memoir of all time, Tuesdays with Morrie began as a modest labor of love to help pay some of Schwartz’s medical bulls. Today, the book has sold more than 14 million copies in more than 50 editions around the world.
