A Long Way Down [and Up], Nick Hornby
In accordance to the depressing months of September and October, I have braved my way into yet another novel of suicide and questions, but this time, on a lighter narration with Nick Hornby’s A Long Way Down.
Once or maybe several times of our lives, we thought of going the easy way out. We ask of what is the point of living in this cruel, miserable world where we have nothing stable to cling on to, where change is constant and inevitable, and the fear of unknown is among us every waking moment of our life. [Or is it just me? Heh.]
In tough times of life questions, we all need a Hornby, for his is the hand that is from the other side of the building offering us the better and sweeter side of life.
