Tuesdays With Morrie by Mitch Albom book review

Tuesdays with morrie book


Tuesday With Morrie is an informative and interesting book which is written by Mitch Albom. An old man, a young man teaches the greatest lessons of life. It was written by Mitch Albom in 1997 who was a well-known American sports journalist of his time. He wrote several books focused on life, spirituality, family, and society. The most famous book is Tuesdays With Morrie. Mitch Albom’s professor Morrie Schwartz became a philosophical guider and mentor to him in his college days, but they lost touch after he graduated." The culture we have don't make people feel good about themselves. If the culture does not work, don't buy it."  Fifteen years later, Albom discovers Morrie who is in the last stage of his life. 


Morrie resumes his role as a teacher in Mitch’s life, although this time the lessons are not academic, but rather about life itself. "The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in". They meet every Tuesday, and Morrie recalls his experiences and what he learned from the past, and the thing he found the most beautiful in his whole life. This book demonstrates the warm relationship that is depicted between a teacher and a student. I call this book a real book because it highlights the relationship between a teacher and a student. 


One of the most important aspects of learning is listening which also forms the base of friendship. Morrie talks as much about death as about life. Because after all, the nature of life lies in death itself. "Death ends a life, not a relationship". In some moments, the book might seem to be preaching too much. But for me, that feeling never lasted, because the book is a short that is filled with wonderful anecdotes, gentle humor, and emotional sensitivity." As long as we can love each other and remember the feeling of love we had we can die without ever really going away". Tuesdays with Morrie is a beautiful book. But it is also a sad book. It made me cry at several moments, and even if it doesn’t bring you to tears, it is certainly a book that will leave you in a melancholic mood. But it also makes you think about experiences, lessons, the world, and life, for a long time after you finish reading it.
