STARTING OVER
Book ID/图书代码: 03540008B29913
English Summary/英文概要: This is the story of how we grow old – how we give up the dreams of youth for something better – and how many chances we have to get it right.
George Bailey has been given the gift we all dream of – the chance to live his life again. After suffering a heart attack at the age of 42, George is given the heart of a 19-year-old – and suddenly everything changes... He is a friend to his teenage son and daughter – and not a stern Home Secretary, monitoring their every move. He makes love to his wife all night long - instead of from midnight until about five past. And suddenly he wants to change the world, just as soon as he shakes off his hangover. But George Bailey discovers that being young again is not all it is cracked up to be – and what he actually wants more than anything in the universe is to have his old life back.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 这是一个关于我们如何老去的故事,我们如何放弃了年轻人的梦想,追求更好的梦想——以及我们有多少机会去实现它。
George Bailey获得了一个千载难逢的礼物,再次过上他想要的生活的机会。在42岁患上心脏病时,George被重新赠予了一颗19岁的心脏,瞬间一切都不一样了。。。他成为了壁花少年少女的知心朋友,不再是刻板的内政大臣,监视家人的一举一动。和妻子整夜缱绻在侧,而非以往的失眠入夜。突然间他想要改变世界,就像他要摆脱宿醉一样。
但是George Bailey发现,变年轻不是所有人都能接受的,他真正想要的是在宇宙中拥有他的旧生命。(Modify by Sandy)
