“There is a library between life and death,” she said. “The shelves in this library go on forever. Each book offers you the chance to live a different life you could have lived. You see what your life would be like now, if you had made different choices…
If you had the chance to make up for your regrets, would you have done things differently?”
Nora Seed is in a mess. Her cat died. She was fired from her job. Her brother won’t talk to her. No one needs her. As a result of a series of bad decisions, she finds herself in a library. In a library at midnight, where time doesn’t pass, amidst an infinite number of books… Each book tells a different story of Nora’s life. The lives she could have lived if she had made different decisions. As Nora flits between different careers, different spouses, different friends, different cities, her mind fills with questions. Is happiness only found in the choices we think are important? Are we really responsible for every detail that goes wrong? What makes life worth living? Can a wrong decision cost a person their entire life?
Matt Haig, one of the important names in English literature; offers a gripping fiction that deals with the most fundamental problems of man to the readers who will accompany Nora on this journey of regrets, possibilities and the possibility of choosing again.
"A timely modern-day tale, It's a Wonderful Life for today, as we are all stuck in a world we want to change."
Jodi Picoult
"A seductive novel, written with sincerity and humor, celebrating the power of books to change lives."
