Více o knize
Nineteen-year-old Harold Chasen is obsessed with death. He fakes suicides to shock his self-absorbed mother, drives a customized Jaguar hearse, and attends funerals of strangers. In contrast, seventy-nine-year-old Maude Chardin adores life. She liberates trees from city sidewalks, paints smiles on church statues, and “borrows” cars to remind their owners that life is fleeting. A chance meeting between the two sparks a madcap romance, leading Harold to discover that life is worth living. This novelization, written by Colin Higgins, expands on the themes of the original film, exploring the contrasts between Harold's morbid fascination and Maude's zest for life. It offers fresh insights and answers to many unresolved questions from the film, making it a valuable companion for fans who have seen the movie multiple times. The story celebrates the beauty of life and the transformative power of love, blending dark comedy with poignant moments that resonate deeply with readers.
