De: Mitch Albom

Narrado por: Mitch Albom

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A special 25th anniversary edition of the beloved book that has changed millions of lives with the story of an unforgettable friendship, the timeless wisdom of older generations, and healing lessons on loss and grief—featuring a new afterword by the author
 
“A wonderful book, a story of the heart told by a writer with soul.”—Los Angeles Times
 
“The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in.”
 
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 his college professor Morrie Schwartz.

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. “The truth is, Mitch,” he said, “once you learn how to die, you learn 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.

Love it!

I really enjoyed the themes of the book. The narration was clear and it was really fun to hear the actual interview at the end! Definitely one I will listen to again!

Beautiful

It truly captures the essence of life as no other story I've read. Simply well worth your time.

Great listen

This was a very well written book. In this day of self-centeredness and materialism it really makes you take a step back and really look at what we value.

An amazing lesson about life

Read this is you’re wondering meaning in life. Philosophy in storytelling form. This telling of an experience can possibilities change yours.

"Death end a Life, but not a relationship"

One of my customer recommend this book to me. I find it interesting and I've purchased it. There are lots of lessons to be learn on this audiobook. After listening to this audiobook, it made me clearly realize that time is more than important than money, though we need money. But money cannot turn back time that was wasted, time that was supposed to spend with someone that is very important to me. Overall, this audiobook was great.
