Eddie is a grizzled war veteran who feels trapped in a meaningless life of fixing rides at a seaside amusement park. His days are a dull routine of work, loneliness, and regret. Then, on his 83rd birthday, Eddie dies in a tragic accident, trying to save a little girl from a falling cart. 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 five people. These people may have been loved ones or distant strangers. Yet each of them changed your path forever. One by one, Eddie's five people illuminate the unseen connections of his earthly life. 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 gives us an astoundingly original story that will change everything you've ever thought about the afterlife - and the meaning of our lives here on earth. With a timeless tale, appealing to all, this is a book that readers of fine fiction, and those who loved Tuesdays with Morrie, will treasure.

用户评价

第一本翻开开始看的英文书 但中间搁置了很久。好在最后还是看完了 国外口碑不错的一本书。整书充满了一种悲伤和遗憾的基调 很纯的文字 和故事。

好多出乎意料的情节， 却让你突然了解了一些未曾想过的事情

心灵鸡汤类书籍，五段生命中的过往，一个游乐园维修工的天堂之旅，用词易懂，另外，出版社把作者另一本书的试读章节附在书尾的做法很聪明啊～
