Representaion In Pursuance Of Books The Class
From world-renowned author Erich Segal comes a powerful and moving saga of five extraordinary members of the Harvard class of 1958 and the women with whom their lives are intertwined. Their explosive story begins in a time of innocence and spans a turbulent quarter century, culminating in their dramatic twenty-five reunion at which they confront their classmates--and the balance sheet of their own lives. Always at the center; amid the passion, laughter, and glory, stands Harvard--the symbol of who they are and who they will be. They were a generation who made the rules--then broke them--whose glittering successes, heartfelt tragedies, and unbridled ambitions would stun the world.Rating Appertaining To Books The Class

Have you ever read a book that has the undefined power to take you through a journey even when you know that you are not a part of the theme but still feel the happiness, agony, frustration that the characters go through? That is what makes this work special, yet awesome and that is what you call the class in real sense.Written about The Harvard class of 1958 (though fictional), Erichs story circumscribes around the lives of five main characters who enter Harvard as children and exit as men whoI really, really, really want to get beyond the free sample of this book. Too engaging!!!Done reading. Erich Segal, if you ever read this, do tell me if Andrew Eliot got married to George Keller's ex-wife.Its pretty important to know so as to have that complete reading experience. What a lovely, lovely book. I think this is one of those books that fulfills all my needs and taste I look out for in a book. Only because I don't belong to the class of '58, I won't say that this book defines my life
OH GOD!!! that was sooo bad!!!!!!!!!! what a let down mr segal and i was actually givng you a secod shot after that disaster of "a Love Story"where do i begin... oh k so the start was rather good. you have a look into the basic life of harvard students and get to realise that not much has changed. the same divisions the same jocks etc. but somewhere just when you have picked a favourite character outta of the handful you are following the book goes downhill.whereas danny rossi's (the musician
The theme of the book captivated me emotionally. The circle of life. After spending terrific four years in college, we take our separate paths and start a new journey, being ambitious and unaware of the future. After surviving twenty five years in the tough and unpredictable world, away from the safe cocoon, people come back to the same place. Because no matter how unfathomable changes we went through, our hearts always remain in that campus.
Do you know how it feels reading an Erich Segal's?Well, it's a comforting arm when you're somber. Better than your favorite TV show. It's just so good you can't help asking why did it end? You'll gonna insist that he's supposed to write longer or in a series. And the best thing is, after you read it, you'll never learn to forget it- the specific details of the plot, the undying lessons learned and the complex yet realistic characters in the story.That is why I admire and like him the most. He's
The prototype for Daniel Rossi is Joseph Raposo - Harvard 1958 (the same year as Erich Segal's) graduate (see http://www.thecrimson.com/article/196...).Jason Gilbert and Ted Lambros carry some traits of Erich Segal's own persona.Andrew Eliot is WASP idealistic symbolic figure, whom Erich Segal admired in his young years(compare with Oliver from "Love Story").
With this book, I first felt how it was to miss the characters. They were cast in a way that was almost factual, like they were people I knew who had become a part of my life. Maybe that was why I felt a longing for them afterward.
