The Notebook – Author "Nicholas Sparks"
The story starts in a nursing home where an elderly man narrates a love story to a female patient. The story is about a young couple who fall in love during early 1940’s. The story begins when a country boy Noah Calhoun meet a girl Allie Hamilton in the south at a carnival and is immediately smitten. The young couple spends a beautiful summer together but Allie is forced to move and go to college although she was willing to give it up for Noah. Noah got devastated by his separation from Allie.He writes her one letter a day for a year without reply, as Allie's mother hides the letters from her. Allie continues to attend school, while Noah enlists to fight in World War II. Allie becomes a volunteer in a hospital for wounded soldiers, where she meets an officer named Lon. To the delight of Allie’s parents the two become engaged. While trying on her wedding dress Noah’s picture in a local newspaper catches her eye where he is standing in front of a fully restored, 200 year old home. Allie’s heart bursts. The last time when she saw this house it was a rotten decaying, where she was in his arms and listened to his plans to buy and restore this house. Just the way she wanted. The picture pulls her heart. She returns to Noah to tell him about her marriage.
In the present it made clear the female patient is Allie suffering from Alzheimer’s disease. The person who reads the story is none other than her husband and her love Noah. She neither recognizes her husband nor her grandchildren’s.
She has to be sedated by physician. Noah breaks down after seeing her condition. Next day he found unresponsive on his bed and rushed to hospital. Later he returns to the nursing home’s intense care ward. Later that night he enters to Allie’s room and Allie remembers again. Allie questions his lover about when she won’t be able to remember anything; he answers her that he’ll never leave her. Again she asks him if he thinks their love for each other is strong enough to 'take them away together’. He says that he thinks their love could do anything. After telling each other they make love and go to sleep in Allie’s bed. The next morning a nurse finds them on that bed having both died in each other’s arms.
Aahhh it was a painful end of a legendary love story.
