Veronika, a young Slovenian woman, attempts suicide but wakes up in a mental hospital. Diagnosed with a fatal heart condition, she’s given days to live. In this liminal space between life and death, Veronika discovers a newfound zest for life. Through interactions with fellow patients, she questions societal norms and the meaning of sanity. Coelho’s poignant narrative explores themes of depression, freedom, and the beauty of embracing life’s uncertainties. It’s a raw, introspective journey that left me pondering long after the last page.
Be crazy! But learn how to be crazy without being the center of attention. Be brave enough to live different.
