From the author of The Five People You Meet in Heaven and Tuesdays with Morrie , a new novel that millions of fans have been waiting for. "Every family is a ghost story . . ." Mitch Albom mesmerized readers around the world with his number one New York Times bestsellers, The Five People You Meet in Heaven and Tuesdays with Morrie . Now he returns with a beautiful, haunting novel about the family we love and the chances we miss. For One More Day is the story of a mother and a son, and a relationship that covers a lifetime and beyond. It explores the question: What would you do if you could spend one more day with a lost loved one? As a child, Charley "Chick" Benetto was told by his father, "You can be a mama's boy or a daddy's boy, but you can't be both." So he chooses his father, only to see the man disappear when Charley is on the verge of adolescence. Decades later, Charley is a broken man. His life has been crumbled by alcohol and regret. He loses his job. He leaves his family. He hits bottom after discovering his only daughter has shut him out of her wedding. And he decides to take his own life. He makes a midnight ride to his small hometown, with plans to do himself in. But upon failing even to do that, he staggers back to his old house, only to make an astonishing discovery. His mother--who died eight years earlier–-is still living there, and welcomes him home as if nothing ever happened. What follows is the one "ordinary" day so many of us yearn for, a chance to make good with a lost parent, to explain the family secrets, and to seek forgiveness. Somewhere between this life and the next, Charley learns the astonishing things he never knew about his mother and her sacrifices. And he tries, with her tender guidance, to put the crumbled pieces of his life back together. Through Albom's inspiring characters and masterful storytelling, readers will newly appreciate those whom they love--and may have thought they'd lost--in their own lives. For One More Day is a book for anyone in a family, and will be cherished by Albom's millions of fans worldwide.

一次性買瞭他三本原版書,one more day,have a little faith和five people,這是剛讀完的第一本,比較消沉的一本書,色調有點灰,人生就是一個不斷失去自己心愛的人和事的過程,給60分吧,內容簡單書也比較小本,一天就可以看完,作者想告訴我們的人情概念,覺得有點淺顯
評分當時在書架上識得此書,純屬偶然。嚮來不敢靠書名來認識原版書,要麼讀不懂要麼不知所雲,見此書皮老實忠厚,讀瞭封底薦語,決定一試。 作者是Mitch Albom,之前從Tuesday with Morrie已經闖齣知名度,但本讀者嚮來不追星,故不曾關注,直到讀完For One More Day後,自覺地...
評分斷斷續續花瞭一周時間看完的,讀起來不難的內容但卻老感覺木有耐心,讀著讀著心思也不曉得飛哪去瞭,當然這不算是篇書評,隻是一點點讀完之後的東西。 整本書沒有特彆的時間順序,書中的男主人公在遇到人生種種挫摺,打擊之下頻頻自殺,隨後麵對生活,麵對女兒大婚卻都沒有通...
評分花瞭2014年的最後一整天看完這本書,隻有“不忍卒讀”能錶達感受。"Behind all your stories is always your mother's story, because here is where yours begins." —— January 7, 2016 It's the second time I read this book. It moved me just like the first time I re...
