【改變人生的閱讀清單】

 

穆克什走進當地的圖書館,暫時放下他一成不變的日常。他全然不知,自己的人生即將迎來改變。

 

他在圖書館遇見了對工作感到厭煩的圖書館員艾莉莎,以及一份神祕的閱讀清單守護者。那只是一張皺巴巴的小紙,上面寫著九本小說的書名,看起來平凡無奇,卻有某種力量讓她始終捨不得丟棄……

 

一本接著一本,穆克什和艾莉莎依照清單閱讀這些故事。在閱讀的過程中,他們的煩惱逐漸消散。每翻開一本書,就像踏入一個全新的世界。這個只有兩名成員、看似不可能成立的讀書會,也悄悄改變了他們的人生。

 

對這兩個孤獨的靈魂而言,重新擁抱生活、收穫一段真摯友誼,原本從未在他們的人生計畫之中。然而,每一個故事,都有它開始的地方……

 

𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘓𝘪𝘴𝘵 透過閱讀串起兩個素不相識的人,描繪書籍如何撫慰傷痛、連結人心,並提醒我們:一本好書,或許真的能改變人生。

 

When Mukesh Patel pops to the local library, forgoing his routine of grocery shopping and David Attenborough documentaries, he has no idea his life’s about to change.

 

He meets Aleisha, a reluctant librarian and the keeper of a curious reading list – just a scrappy piece of paper with the names of 9 stories. It doesn’t seem anything special. Yet something tells her to keep it close . . .

 

Story by story, Mukesh and Aleisha work their way through the list – their worries slipping away with every encounter, with every world discovered in their unlikely book club of two.

 

A fresh chance at life, at friendship, wasn’t on the cards for these lonely souls – but every story starts somewhere . . .

 

Everyone’s getting swept away with The Reading List.
