The state her heart was in, she could expect a week of life before she succumbed to the death she had wished for.
Upon waking, the doctor told the girl she would survive, but her heart had taken the toll from the suicide attempt. She slowly fell into a drowsy state, but the peaceful death was not coming, a burning throughout her body led her into a coma and she woke in the infamous Villette hospital for the mentally insane. After feigning sleeplessness, she collected strong sleeping pills and went about the deed. She believed the routine of her life was inconsequential and secretly vowed to kill herself to leave the world behind. With as many positives points in her life, Veronica found nearly as much sadness. She lives in Ljubljana, the capital city of the newly formed country of Slovenia (after the Yugoslavian civil war). Veronica is a young woman with a happy life. It just takes one book to understand why, and this book certainly fits into that category. Coelho’s books have been NY Times Best Sellers and translated into dozens of languages, he’s one of the top selling modern authors. As morbid and depressing as the title seems, this Coelho book takes the usual turn for understanding of the universe and an inspiration for readers to strive not to settle into the kind of routine they don’t wish to be in.
