***
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, Veronika decides to die. She takes a handful of sleeping pills, expecting never to wake up. But she does -- at a mental hospital where she is told that she has only days to live.

This poignant international bestseller by the author of The Alchemist and Eleven Minutes takes readers on a quest to find meaning in a culture overshadowed by angst, soulless routine, and perverse conformity. Based in events in Coelho's own life, Veronika Decides to Die questions the meaning of madness and celebrates individuals who do not fit into patterns society considers to be normal. Bold, illuminating, it is a dazzling portrait of a young woman at the crossroads of deapir and liberation, and a poetic, exuberant appreciation of each day as a renewed opportunity.
