'WHAT CAN U SAY ABOUT A 24 YEAR OLD GIRL WHO DIED'
this is the opening line of one of my favourite books, LOVE STORY. as the title suggests its a love story. in every way its a love story where every bond between different characters is based on love and its different forms. the love between a girl and a boy, the love between a father and a daughter, the love between a son and his parents which never existed.
the most wonderful thing about this book was that the end was declared in the first line itself. so there was no mystery involved. its merely a tale of pure emotions. simple conversations and circumstances touches your heart.
the hero of the story oliver hates his parents and his heritage just too much. whereas the heroine jennifer loves everything in her life, including her father and oliver with great passion and devotion. love begins to unfold between these two individuals whose opinions and passions are as opposite as noth and south poles. but the only thing that bindsthem together is their love for one another.life is not always a bed of roses. after a hell lot of struggle when they were able to get together and build a new life for themselves, oliver discovers that jenny is dying. slowly like a flower jenny withers and finally dies. but the emotions reciprocated in the words of eric segal cannot be depicted in my post.
one can understand love story and its effect only by reading it. its a story of love, passion, compromises, devotion, understanding and emotions. and the moral of the story is,
'LOVE MEANS NEVER HAVING TO SAY YOU ARE SORRY.'
I have read this book long back & liked it then. Now I have forgotten the details some of which came in mind after reading this post.
