Tuesdays With Morrie : An Old Man, a Young Man and Life’s Greatest Lesson

Description

By Mitch Albom

Sixteen years after graduating, Albom saw his old sociology professor on television, dying of motor neurone disease. He went to visit, and then kept going back every Tuesday until Morrie Schwartz died.

The book is those conversations, arranged as a final course with a syllabus: family, money, regret, fear of ageing, forgiveness, and how to die. Morrie does most of the talking, which is the point.
