Maggiori informazioni sul libro

A New York Times bestseller, this novel was adapted into an Oscar-winning film featuring Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence. It narrates the poignant journey of a man grappling with his wife's betrayal and his quest for self-discovery. After spending time in a mental health facility, Pat Peoples develops a theory about silver linings, believing his life is a movie directed by God. His goals are to become physically fit, emotionally supportive, and ultimately reunite with his estranged wife, Nikki. Upon returning to his parents' home, Pat finds everything transformed: conversations about Nikki are off-limits, his friends have moved on, the Philadelphia Eagles are losing, and his new therapist seems to endorse infidelity as therapy. His life takes an unexpected turn when he encounters Tiffany, a widowed and clinically depressed woman. She proposes a deal to help him connect with Nikki, requiring him to stop watching football, participate in a Dance Away Depression competition, and keep their agreement secret. As Pat navigates these challenges, he continues to search for his silver lining. This debut novel offers a unique glimpse into Pat's mind, presenting a touching and humorous exploration of depression and love.
