A propos de cet article

Neuware -'Mitch Albom has done it again with this moving memoir of love and loss. You can't help but fall for Chika. A page-turner that will no doubt become a classic.' -Mary Karr, author of The Liars' Club and The Art of MemoirFrom the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Tuesdays With Morrie comes Mitch Albom's most personal story to date: an intimate and heartwarming memoir about what it means to be a family and the young Haitian orphan whose short life would forever change his heart. Chika Jeune was born three days before the devastating earthquake that decimated Haiti in 2010. She spent her infancy in a landscape of extreme poverty, and when her mother died giving birth to a baby brother, Chika was brought to The Have Faith Haiti Orphanage that Albom operates in Port Au Prince. With no children of their own, the forty-plus children who live, play, and go to school at the orphanage have become family to Mitch and his wife, Janine. Chika's arrival makes a quick impression. Brave and self-assured, even as a three-year-old, she delights the other kids and teachers. But at age five, Chika is suddenly diagnosed with something a doctor there says, 'No one in Haiti can help you with.' Mitch and Janine bring Chika to Detroit, hopeful that American medical care can soon return her to her homeland. Instead, Chika becomes a permanent part of their household, and their lives, as they embark on a two-year, around-the-world medical journey to find a cure. As Chika's boundless optimism and humor teach Mitch the joys of caring for a child, he learns that a relationship built on love, a true parent-child bond, no matter what blows it takes, can never be lost. Told in hindsight, and through illuminating conversations with Chika herself, this inspirational story is Albom at his most poignant and vulnerable. Finding Chika is a celebration of a girl, her adoptive guardians, and the incredible bond they formed-a devastatingly beautiful portrait of what it means to be a found family, regardless of how it is made.Told with the signature heart and vulnerability that has moved millions, this memoir is an unflinching look at what it means to love, no matter what blows it takes.Love, Loss, and Hope: Experience the powerful, unbreakable bond that forms between Mitch, Janine, and Chika-a love story that endures even after a devastating loss.A Global Search for a Cure: Travel from a small orphanage in Haiti to cutting-edge clinics in America and Germany on a two-year journey that redefines the meaning of fighting for family.A Child's Unbreakable Spirit: Fall in love with Chika, a little girl whose boundless humor and optimism in the face of an impossible diagnosis will change your heart forever.On Grief and Healing: Told in hindsight through conversations with Chika herself, Albom offers a poignant and vulnerable look at what it means to carry on after losing a child. 243 pp. Englisch.…
