When she finally perks up and opens a new chapter in her life, an accident robs her of her long-lost true love, and Anne herself falls into a coma and is dying. At the turn of fate, she embarks on an unexpected journey and meets the five most important beings in her life, including her relatives, lovers, and passers-by who meet her in Pingshui but are closely related. At the end of the journey, Anne discovers that the so-called stranger is just a friend who has not had time to look at her. And those that seem to be lost will come back in another way...
Writer Jie Chen confessed that she was very sad and helpless when she read this book. "When I read this book, I had a special feeling, and this feeling was that there was a sudden sense of fear, and this sense of fear was the accident of life presented in the book. It will happen that human life is so fragile, it may meet the god of death for a very small reason, it may turn to a certain inflection point in life, etc. But in fact, I think this kind of thing is precisely the charm of this book. JieChen believes that Mickey Albom's pen has something very valuable in literature, bringing the warmth of human nature, "We can also expand from this place to explore some of our very brave writers in this world, they really take a probe to the deepest part of people's nerves, thrilling, but this process is also a healing process, Mickey is such a good writer." ”
