About this listen

With echoes of The Bridges of Madison County, this tale explores the enduring power of love through the years and in the face of adversity.

Noah and Allie fell in love as teenagers, with the purest sort of love, only to be kept apart by Allie's mother. Their feelings survived in spite of everything - and they recounted their romance in the pages of a notebook. Now, years later, Allie suffers from Alzheimer's, and her memory has been wiped clean. By reading the story of their relationship and the passion they shared, Noah hopes to break through the barrier of his wife's illness.

This poignant first novel from Nicholas Sparks rivals any love story ever written.

"Nelligan's genteel, Southern tones blend perfectly with Scott's straightforward, gentle, often sensuous baritone. The readers deliver strong characterizations." (AudioFile)

Just Wow!

What an amazing story!
I’ve never watched the movie so it was a fist for me.
The emotions this short story brought forth was astonishing & the bits of poetry just enough to make you want more…

A beautiful love story

I think this is one of the most touching love stories ever written. I listened to the last hour while riding home in the car, and cried all of the way. It's beautifully written and beautifully performed. Get this audiobook...You won't be disappointed! It's a WONDERFUL book describing how enduring the love between two people can be.

An inspirational, highly moving story

Definitely worth the price! One of the most touching novels I have "read" in a long time. It made me laugh and it made me cry. The characters are very believable and the story is very moving.
