When he is eight years old, Alfie Logan discovers the magical ability to get second chances. He can undo any moment and live it again. The only catch: he must eccept the consequences of his second try. He grows up saving himself from adolescent embarrassments. He takes wildly foolish risks, tempting danger and even death. In time, Alfie falls deeply in love with Gianna, the woman he believes is the one. But as the years pass, Alfie's eye begins to wander. Knowing if he gives in to temptation, he may lose what he has with Gianna, Alfie makes a choice that changes their lives forever. The book begins many years later, after an ailing Alfie is arrested on suspicion of cheating at a casino. As a grizzled detective interrogates him, he slowly uncovers Alfie's incredible story and its most unlikely conclusion. In Twice, Mitch Albom is at the height of his powers. Twice will make you smile, weep, and overflow with love from beginning to end.
