Abstract
The heart dreams, loves, takes chances, defies the odds. Landon opts for the heart, choosing to believe in a miracle. He falls in love when he's not looking for it, and that love changes him forever. And in that love which seems so selfless, readers find solitude and wish it were they.
Description
Walk to Remember is a 1999 novel by bestselling American romance-writer Nicholas Sparks. It was adapted into a movie in 2002. The novel, set in 1958 in the coastal North Carolina town of Beaufort, builds on the brand Sparks established in his earlier bestselling 1996 novel, The Notebook, which is a historical romance set in a North Carolina coastal town during the 1940s. This North Carolina setting is also a locale of subsequent works, such as Nights in Rodanthe. A common theme of Sparks’s novels seen in the A Walk to Remember is the juxtaposition of two time periods, the present and the past, in which an older person remembers a long-ago love.
