How Do You Live?

I choose to read this because Hayao Miyazaki is going to make a movie out it and also titles was attractive. I really enjoyed the read and hope I could reread it in the future.

Simply put, or rather honestly said, there is no other way to describe this book once you've read it. So read it.Because this is one of those books that's going to look, feel, reflect and retain differently for each person who reads it. In my own case, the way I read out the title of the book, "How Do You Live?" when I first glimpsed the cover of the book; and the manner in which the book had me thoughtfully whisper the words, "How Do You Live?" at the very end of it, were entirely alien to each other.It might start off as a story about a boy and his uncle; the boy's steps into the adult world guided by the uncle, who has the best aspirations for the man, that the child will grow up to become. Then you slowly realise that the boy isn't the only being guided here. He isn't the only one having his eyes opened to the things in life that once seemed so trivial.You've been learning alongside him and his adventures.I can't wait to watch this, once Hayao Miyazaki's magic has been worked on it!

The hardcover edition is gorgeous and a steal deal for the price. But the story is okayish and the book delivers a simple message. Good for school kids.

I've read the book completely and I always felt the human in me whenever I engaged with it. At times, it made my eyes wet with emotions. This book had led me to various places which has the potential to make me a whole human being. And, I'm going to gift this to my inner circles.If you ask me, everyone should this book, especially in these times where we highly require real-humans.

Great book with beautiful message

I wish Amazon could protect the books better, cheap editions only have paper cover on them so if tha tone gets damaged you end up with a naked book, mine came a big damagedAside that it's a wonderful work, really comfortable to read, big font

Ein in seiner Einfachheit auch sehr berührendes und philosophisches Buch.

It is written so beautifully, I have ended up buying more copies as presents for family and friends. Delivery was quick and efficient.
