DEATH IS A CONTINUATION OF LIFE ON EARTH!

I saw the movie first & my initial reaction was "Ok, cinematography was GREAT but plot is so depressing". When I decided to read the book, I discovered that there were a lot of areas not fully expounded nor explained in the movie. It's different when you READ -- you see what Chris is thinking; you feel what Chris is afraid of. You know his character & understand why he is where he is. I am a Catholic & believe in Heaven & Hell -- it is something we have been taught in home, school & church. Similar to Matheson's story, there is LIFE after DEATH. It is living accordingly to HIS will & reaping what you sowed during your lifetime here on earth. What's amazing to note is one person's unflatering belief & conviction to transcend boundaries of spiritual locations to save his partner... & in failure to do so, his strong willingness to suffer altogether just to be one. A true depiction of REAL & LASTING LOVE.

I'm dead!

I can't say if Matheson is right or not. I keep wondering though if the main character i The incredible shrinking man comes to heaven in the end!

One of the Best

I must tell you that before I read this book I didn't even know who Richard Matheson was. My mom was the one who got me into this book. She read it before me, and told me that it was soooo good. So I figured why not try it. Since I am the type who could spend a lifetime reading good books. Once I started this book I couldn't put it down. This story about Heaven and Hell is one of my favorites. It certainly does make you wonder about where we go when we die. Once I got to the end it was so sad that I started to cry, and I am not the type to cry over a book! So I suggest you read it.

Abandon all hope, all ye who enter here...

A book that took my breath away. Abandon any preconceptions you may have about God, heaven, hell, and life after death, and let yourself be immersed in this truly unique interpretation of one man's vision of love and spirituality. An incredible story about love and devotion, deeply laced with a philosophy of life after death that embraces the oh-so-hard-to-find common links between all religions.

Forget the movie, this book is way too deep to be translated on to film. My husband literally dusted the furniture around me as I sat transfixed, unable to put the book down until the very end.
