\nTuesdays with Morr
ie: An Old Man\, a Young Man\, and Life&rsquo\;s Greatest Lesson (book)
<
strong>by Mitch Albom
Maybe it was a grandparent\, or a teacher. Someone older who
understood you when you were young and searching\, who helped you see the
world as a more profound place\, and gave you advice to help you make you
r 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 your mentor as you made your way\, and the insights fad
ed\, and the world seemed colder. Wouldn't you like to see that person aga
in\, ask the bigger questions that still haunt you? Mitch Albom had that s
econd 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. Tuesdays With Morrie is a
magical chronicle of their time together\, through which Mitch shares Mor
rie's lasting gift to the world. --From the publisher.
