“Sometimes I ask myself what I would be if Jenny were alive. Though I would refrain from delivering the end, I definitely want to mention these last lines of the epilogue. To find out the answers, all you have to do is grab a copy of the book. So what will happen to Oliver and Marcie? Will they be able to make it work? Will Oliver be able to love someone as he loved or perhaps loves Jenny? Very soon, he meets yet another girl, Marcie Binnendale, whom he finds very charming and who also starts loving him back.īut as Marcie and Oliver discover their newfound love, they also come across impediments which throw new challenges on their delicate relationship every day. Meanwhile, Phil, assuming the role of his caretaker and guide, incessantly tries to push onto the path of blissful matrimony.Īs a result, Oliver meets Joanna Stein, a girl who he tends to start liking but unfortunately with whom it was not meant to be. In his solitudes, he finds his redemption, for though it is hardly true, but he still blames himself for what happened to Jenny.
In this book, Oliver Barett IV, our beloved hero from “Love Story” tries to cope up with the loss of her dearly loved Jenny by spending more and more time with her Dad Phil and reminiscing about her every now and then.įor almost two years after her death, he seeks solitude and isolation from social gatherings and other such necessities. The book, at least as per my view, tries to explore the answer to the basic yet most convoluted question – Can love happen twice? And if yes, can it recreate the magic of ‘that first love”? So, let’s see if the book meets the expectations, so highly set by its prequel.
Having such a great prequel, there is definitely a hype around the next book “Oliver’s Story”. Needless to say, the book was a masterpiece and found its way into the heart of almost everyone who has ever read it. A few weeks back I had reviewed the book “Love Story” by Erich Segal.
