An old man, a young man, and a life lesson. Recommended and foreword by Professor Yu Qiuyu! A touching story that moved the world, a book that created a publishing miracle.
This is a true story: At the age of seventy, sociologist Morrie suffered from ALS in 1994 and passed away a year later. As one of Morrie's early mentees, Mitch visited him every Tuesday during the last fourteen weeks of his illness, listening to his final teachings and, after his death, stringing together his life lessons into a chain, naming it Tuesdays with Morrie.
Author Mitch Albom is a renowned American writer and television host, whose other works include the globally bestselling novel The Five People You Meet in Heaven, which has sold over five million copies worldwide. For him, the experience of "Tuesdays with Morrie" was not just a chance to reexamine himself but also to retake the required course of life.
This life lesson moved the author, and through his masterful writing, it touched the entire world. The book spent four years on the top book sales charts in the United States, was translated into thirty-one languages, including Chinese, and became a publishing miracle in recent years.
