SynopsisEddie is a wounded war veteran, an old man who has lived, in his mind, an uninspired life. His job is fixing rides at a seaside amusement park. On his 83rd birthday, a tragic accident kills him, as he tries to save a little girl from a falling cart. He awakes in the afterlife, where he learns that heaven is not a destination. It's a place where your life is explained to you by five people, some of whom you knew, others who may have been strangers. One by one, from childhood to soldier to old age, Eddie's five people revisit their connections to him on earth, illuminating the mysteries of his "meaningless" life, and revealing the haunting secret behind the eternal question: "Why was I here?", From the bestselling author of Tuesdays with Morrie , a war veteran encounters the true significance of life after death in this touching modern classic. On his 83rd birthday, Eddie dies in a tragic amusement park ride accident in an attempt to save a little girl's life. He awakens in the afterlife, where he learns that heaven is not a lush Garden of Eden, but a place where your earthly life is explained to you by both loved ones and distant strangers. As the story builds to its stunning conclusion, Eddie desperately seeks redemption in the still-unknown last act of his life: Was it a heroic success or a devastating failure? The answer, which comes from the most unlikely of sources, is as inspirational as a glimpse of heaven itself. In The Five People You Meet in Heaven , Mitch Albom will change everything you've ever thought about the afterlife--and the meaning of our lives here on earth.

A Very Eloquently Written Book!
I bought it for a Summer High School reading assignment for my Granddaughter. She loved the book and will probably be tested on it when she returns to school this August. I ask her what she liked the most about the book and she said, it was very eloquently written.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu

A Repeat Reading
I have seen the movie and already read the book many years ago but am finding it just as interesting and thought provoking the second time as I did the first time. I also like to give it to friends and family when the occasion arises.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Very apt title! The 5 people really did sum up his reason for being alive.
An easy book to get lost in. I didn't want to put it down. I laughed, cried and wished it would never end. It made me understand how much impact we have on others and they on us....even though we may never know it.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Simple story with large impact
If you are looking an easy and inspiring book then look no further. As simple as it is it will make you think and appreciate a lot more than you've been ignoring. Highly recommended as it is an easy ready yet extremely fascinating. I purchased three, total, as I couldn't hold back on recommendations to close friends so I did them the favor and had them shipped to their homes. They are happy and pleased to have read it.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
