The novels protagonist is an elderly amusement park maintenance worker named Eddie who  while operating a ride called the Free Fall  dies while trying to save a young girl who gets in the way of a falling cart that hurtles to earth. Eddie goes to heaven  where he meets five people who were unexpectedly instrumental in some way in his life. While each guide takes him through heaven  Eddie learns a little bit more about what his time on earth meant  what he was supposed to have learned  and what his true purpose on earth was. Throughout there are dramatic flashbacks where we see scenes from his troubled childhood  his years in the army in the Philippines jungle  and with his first and only love  his wife Marguerite. THE FIVE PEOPLE YOU MEET IN HEAVEN is the perfect book to follow TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE. Its compellingly affecting themes and lyrical writing will fascinate Mitch Alboms huge readership.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44985239207989,"sku":"ByrdShop_1401391346","price":29.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781401391348.jpg?v=1770853576","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-five-people-you-meet-in-heaven","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
