The Class

Summary: Inspiring... A Brilliant Saga
Review: Erich Segal is truly one of the greatest novelists of all times, all of his works evoking pathos. "The Class" is no exception. Each character has a distinct personality, and the incorporation of real and fictional characters is pure genuis. This is a book I have read over and over again, and enjoyed each and every time. A wonderful, stirring read.

Summary: One of the Best Books I've ever read.
Review: This book surely makes you think about what "LIFE" is. And it also helps you to think about what you're going to be in your future. Since it tell you what had happened back then in 1950s to 60s, I guess it'll definitely help you in your history class as well. Especially putting Keller as a apprentice of Kissinger was interesting. This book has also teaches us that no one is actually perfect. All those students in Havard are human beings too. They have feelings and every human emotion. This book was about those who led this world and as a high school student who would lead the 21st century, I wish we can do as well as the characters in the book did.

Summary: Takes you back in College
Review: This book took me back in College where everyone has their own world, ideas, dreams and aspirations. Mr Segal indeed, gave us the emotions we felt, experienced during those times through the adventures of the 5 individuals.

I enjoyed reading the book, but after i read "Doctors", it seems like a copy of "The Class".

Summary: Wonderful novel.
Review: This is, in my opinion, Segal's best writing. As is his way, he weaves fiction with portions of historical fact, and realism in locale which make the reading more credible, and imminently enjoyable. It moves through conflicts and peacetime; from Cambridge to Europe and the Middle East.

It is a delightful journey of a handful of young people through their respective lives. It has unrecognized (by some, at least) and public triumph, the struggles, and uncertainties that we all have gone through. These members of the Harvard Class of 1958 start in very different places, move together in Cambridge, and then move away (and back together). The well managed story takes the fortunate reader right along with them.

In this novel, I see friends (and acquaintances) from high school, college and law school. A touching and warm book, I have read (like many other reviewers) time and time and time again.

Summary: Well worth the time!
Review: When I was a senior in High School I took a reading course that hadn't been offered before. We were made to read...no, "made" is such a harsh term...we were asked to read several books with The Class being one of the "optional" selections. I've treasured this book ever since. There have been so few books in my life that I've kept after I've read them once or twice. The Class is one of the exceptions. You can't help but feel like you know these characters personally. Before you start reading this book, please make sure you have a clear calendar because you will not be able to put it down. And when you read the last page, you will want to start all over again. You will be cheering for characters and crying for characters. And you will wish that you could meet someone just like one of them, just so you could proudly say you were friends.
