"This is a sweet book of a man's love for his mentor.  It has a stubborn honesty that nourishes the living." --Robert Bly, author of Iron John "A deeply moving account of courage and wisdom, shared by an inveterate mentor looking into the multitextured face of his own death.  There is much to be learned by sitting in on this final class." --Jon Kabat-Zinn, coauthor of Everyday Blessings and Wherever You Go, There You Are "All of the saints and Buddhas have taught us that wisdom and compassion are one.  Now along comes Morrie, who makes it perfectly plain.  His living and dying show us the way." --Joanna Bull, Founder and Executive Director of Gilda's Club From the Hardcover edition., "Mitch Albom's book is a gift to mankind."-- Philadelphia Inquirer "A wonderful book, a story of the heart told by a writer with soul."-- Los Angeles Times "An extraordinary contribution to the literature of death."-- Boston Globe "One of those books that kind of sneaked up and grabbed people's hearts over time."-- Milwaukee Journal Sentinel "An elegantly simple story about a writer getting a second chance to discover life through the death of a friend."-- Tampa Tribune "As sweet and nourishing as fresh summer corn ... the book begs to be read aloud."-- USA Today "This is a sweet book of a man's love for his mentor.

Synopsis
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * The blockbuster book that is one of the top-selling memoirs of all time and is the basis for the Emmy Award-winning film and stage adaptations that have been produced continuously worldwide since 2002 * An unforgettable story of friendship, the timeless wisdom of older generations, and healing lessons on loss and grief "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 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., Maybe it was a grandparent, or a teacher, or a colleague.

    An excellent read for all ages.

    This is one of the best books I have read in a long time. I highly recommend it. In fact, I have purchased extra copies to share with my friends, so they can enjoy it too.

    Condition not accurate

    I bought this book as a christmas gift for my mother, who loves reading, and has made it clear she doesn’t care if we get her used books as long as its in good condition. Personally, my price range is limited but when i saw this i was excited because it was very cheap and the description said “Very good - has been read but looks new”. Seemed like a steal until i got it. if i were selling this book i would label it as FAIR condition. it was a hardcover, and the book jacket was stained and disgusting looking, along with the spine showing the pages, as if someone spilt something on it. like i said, i knew the book was used & i expected some minor wear & tear, but i dont think it should have been considered VERY GOOD condition when it was clearly only FAIR. Unhappy and will probably have to ...

    I love Mitch Albom’s writing style. He uses very few words to paint broad pictures.

    I can make it simple. The product stank like a seven-day-old in a septic tank. I don’t know where the seller stored the book, but that place should be condemned by law. After I opened the package, not only did the putrid smell pour out like the explosion of a newly active volcanos, but the offensive fragrance lingered for several days. I live in a room less than the size of a prison cell. I don’t need help making it smell bad. I work every day to make it smell good. I sprayed the product with Lysol, but not so much as to spoil the the print. To this day, whiffs of it’s odorous being exist in my home.

    Light Reading, Leaves Heavy Message

    I've heard several reviews of the book and wasn't compelled to read it until I learned how the book/story came to be. The author's candid details of what is considered by most to be one of life's 'peripheral' relationships, comes full-circle and gives the reader a strong 'curtain-call' message, long before intermission. It touches on every emotion at some point and will have you making comparisons to your own life, by the end of the first 'Tuesday'. We tend not to notice certain important things in life which don't yet 'apply' to us but in the end, this story applies to everyone and to read it earlier rather than later, is a gift. Death is certain for all of us and as a frightening thought for most, we simply do our best to ...

    EXCELLANT BOOK & PRODUCT - YOU WILL LOVE IT !

    My daughter passed away in her twenties and I was having a hard time adjusting to life. I was reading every single book possible. THEN, I came across this book " Tuesdays with Morrie " and it answered everything about life, love, family, getting older, self esteem, and with loving and holding on to respecting yourself all through everything in what life gives you in the ups and downs . Mitch Albom, the Author, says it in such an excellant way from what Morrie has told him and how Morrie has felt it in his own life. This book will bring you up if you are down and this book will help you understand life and yourself and people . I LOVE this book. This is my FAVORITE ! I even have it signed by the Author himself . This book helped me go to sleep calmly after my daughters death, and understand ...
