An unforgettable moment

In April, when the wind blows from the sea and brings with it the scent of lilacs, Landon Carter's memory awakens to the bittersweet moments he experienced in 1958. It was that year he met the beautiful Jamie Sullivan. Unlike him, who was the most popular boy in school, Jamie was demure and shy, preferring to live in her own world, far from the adventures and dramas of adolescence.

The young and impetuous Landon would never have looked twice at the uninteresting girl, had Fate not brought them together in the most unexpected way. And that seemingly ordinary girl has so much to teach him… With Jamie, Landon will discover the deepest corners of the human heart, and embark on a journey of joy, love, and loss.

It was then that Landon became a man.
That will forever be an unforgettable moment.

Inspired by the life and courage of Nicholas Sparks' sister, A Walk to Remember was, to date, the book the author most enjoyed writing. It was also the only one that made him cry while writing it.
