Reviews

Tuesdays with Morrie is the best-selling inspirational true story of Albom and the discussions he had with his dying sociology professor and mentor, Morrie Schwartz. The topic is life, and Schwartz has profound advice for his former student. The author does an excellent job reading his book; we can hear Schwartz getting weaker physically through the narrator's pauses and speech intonations. Highly recommended for all public libraries.-Ilka Gordon, Medical Lib., Fairview General Hosp., Cleveland Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.

"This is a sweet book of a man's love for his mentor. It has a stubborn honesty that nourishes the living."
--Robert Bly, author of "Iron John"

"A deeply moving account of courage and wisdom, shared by an inveterate mentor looking into the multitextured face of his own death. There is much to be learned by sitting in on this final class."
--Jon Kabat-Zinn, coauthor of "Everyday Blessings" and "Wherever You Go, There You Are"

"All of the saints and Buddhas have taught us that wisdom and compassion are one. Now along comes Morrie, who makes it perfectly plain. His living and dying show us the way."
--Joanna Bull, Founder and Executive Director of Gilda's Club
