Veronika Decides To Die by Paulo Coelho
Coelho is a brilliant writer. He never fails to touch me deeply with his work; I feel magic in his words and stories, and he makes me believe that everything I believe exists, the things that many don't see or can't see. He makes me believe that everything my heart desires is possible, and that I am other-worldly. I am grateful for his prose, and continue to feel inspired by his work.
This story is about twenty-four year old Veronika, who one day decides that she wants to die. She fails at this attempt, however, and wakes up in a mental hospital. It is beautiful and well worth a read.
