Veronika Decides to Die: A Novel of Redemption -- Paulo Coelho

<p><strong>"A highly original, moving, and ultimately life-affirming book." - <em>Sunday Mirror </em>(London)</strong></p><p>Twenty-four-year-old Veronika seems to have everything - youth and beauty, boyfriends and a loving family, a fulfilling job. But something is missing in her life. So, one cold November morning. She takes a handful of sleeping pills expecting to never wake up. But she does--at a mental hospital where she is told that she has only days to live.</p><p>Inspired by events in Coelho's own life, <em>Veronika Decides to Die</em> questions the meaning of madness and celebrates individuals who do not fit into patterns society considers to be normal. Bold and illuminating, it is a dazzling portrait of a young woman at the crossroads of despair and liberation, and a poetic, exuberant appreciation of each day as a renewed opportunity.</p><br><br><b>Author:</b> Paulo Coelho<br><b>Publisher:</b> HarperOne<br><b>Published:</b> 08/03/2021<br><b>Pages:</b> 240<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.40lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 8.01h x 5.36w x 0.59d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780061124266
