About This Item
Hachette, Australia, 2008. Reprint. Softcover. Good Condition. Maybe it was a grandparent, or a teacher or a colleague. Someone older, patient and wise, who understood you when you were young and searching and gave you sound advice to help you make your 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 this mentor as you made your way and the insights faded. Wouldn't you like to see that person again, ask the bigger questions that still haunt you? Mitch Albom had that second chance. He rediscovered Morrie in the last months of the older man's life. Knowing he was dying of ALS - or motor neurone disease - Mitch visited Morrie in his study every Tuesday, just as they used to back in college. Their rekindled relationship turned into one final 'class': lessons in how to live. 192 pages. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilogram.

Reviews
On Dec 26 2007, Hazelwood_Booksellers said:
Before Mitch Albom wrote the modern era classics, The Five People You Meet In Heaven, and, For One More Day; he had given us a grande classic in the endearing and enduring, Tuesdays With Morrie. Albom receives the grace most all of us long for in a return to the learning's of life foundationing the core of his values from the mentor of his youth. Professor Morrie Schwartz was that mentor for Albom, snd he revisits Morrie toward the end of his life when he is stricken with Lou Gehrig's disease. During that final time they meet Tuesdays in Morrie's study, as they did in times gone by, where Albom has the golden opportunity to ask the deeper questions he would not have known, nor known how to ask, in his youth. A faith reaffirming book that will leave you renewed and revitalized in your continuing trek through life daily. This was Mitch Albom's 7th work. A true life masterpiece.
