Eddie is a grizzled war veteran who feels trapped in a meaningless life of fixing rides at a seaside amusement park. As the park has changed over the years—from the Loop-the-Loop to the Pipeline Plunge—so, too, has Eddie changed, from optimistic youth to embittered old age. His days are a dull routine of work, loneliness, and regret.

Then, on his 83rd birthday, Eddie dies in a tragic accident, trying to save a little girl from a falling cart. With his final breath, he feels two small hands in his—and then nothing. He awakens in the afterlife, where he learns that heaven is not a lush Garden of Eden, but a place where your earthly life is explained to you by five people who were in it. These people may have been loved ones or distant strangers. Yet each of them changed your path forever.

One by one, Eddie’s five people illuminate the unseen connections of his earthly life. As the story builds to its stunning conclusion, Eddie desperately seeks redemption in the still-unknown last act of his life: Was it a heroic success or a devastating failure? The answer, which comes from the most unlikely of sources, is as inspirational as a glimpse of heaven itself.

In The Five People You Meet in Heaven, Mitch Albom gives us an astoundingly original story that will change everything you’ve ever thought about the afterlife—and the meaning of our lives here on earth. With a timeless tale, appealing to all, this is a book that readers of fine fiction, and those who loved Tuesdays with Morrie, will treasure.

    Pada setiap pertemuan, akan memberikan makna. First person adalah seorang ank yang telah terlahir dengan ketidaksempurnaan merupakamn tetangga Eddie dan kematian pada dirinya di sebabkan oleh pertemuannya dengan eddie tapi kematian telah membawanya pada ketenangan. Second person, the Captain bahwa kehidupan akan lebih bermakna jika berbuat sesuatu untuk orang lain walaupun kematian menimpa. Third person, Gilr berbicara tentang sosok ayahnya eddie yang telah di bencinya hingga saat pertemuan itu. Perlakuan jahat yang selalu di tunjukkannya telah menjadi cerminan Eddie dalam penilaian tanpa melihat ternyata ada kejadian, kebaikan dari sisi lainnya. Fourth person, His Wife, bahwa kematian bukan akhir dari pemberian cinta. Last person, little girl tentang kenapa. Kehidupan dan kematian.

    Selamat membaca,

    Sacrifice,” the Captain said. “You made one. I made one. We all make them. But you were angry over yours. You kept thinking about what you lost.

    That there are no random acts. That we are all connected. That you can no more separate one life from another than you can separate a breeze from the wind

    How Do PEOPLE choose their final words? Do they realize their gravity? Are they fated to be wise?
