Yes i feel class is good, sentimental!
Its bout 5 members of the Harvard class. Their story begins in a time of innocence ..
and thorough 25 years of life and reality, passion laughter, women in their lives,..
climaxing in their reunion at which they confront thier classmates....
With what they were, ...What they go thorough.... and what they are now.
Very emotional novel that completely touches u. One has got to read it.
Takes you back to College LOL.
I guess it also won Literary prizes down in Europe.
Yet my first choice is always
DOCTORS. I was obsessed with that character BARNEY LIVINGSTON for quite sometime.
I feel one develops emotional attachments with any character, who shares his or her
childhood with us. We tend to live with the character, and grow with them through the
years.
Btw, It was me who started this thread, just took a different name later.
Thx,
Shakthi.

Doctors, was one of "the" best that i've read in a long time, Mr.segal has truly captured the live, the essance and the nuisance of the things that doctors, go through to be what they are and how they were prepared to face the harsh really of medical science, by the way the movie/mini sereies was good too, esspecially the potrayal of Dr.Bennet Landsmann (AKA. Abraham Lincoln Bennet)
he was sort of my hero. He being colored and all was able not only keep up with his white peers but managed to surpass the expectation of himself.
Laura Castellano, was truly an inspiration to women folk almost everywhere, that the medical line was not only for the male.
truly a very well written book.
i hope that Mr.segal writes some more of this type of book.

Hello everyone *
My mum read 'Love Story' once upon a time and it has lived within her heart ever since. I , however cannot get my hands on this masterpiece :(
and await eagerly the day our paths finally cross.
I have had the utmost pleasure of experiencing 'Doctors' and 'Only Love' which completely took my breath away.
Mr. Segal's depth of mind and soul takes my breath away ...

In "The Class" what I liked was not the just, it was the picture of an ideal filled America. Unlike today when both that country and the ideals they live for are both in jeopardy.

Hey guys,
I'm a final year medical student and let me inject you with something;my kudos for anything Segal.Believe me when I say I'm a proselytiser of all my friends.(now they all walk around as Segal zombies,waiting to gulp down all his other works).The most inspiring and motivating aspects of his works point to emotion raw and uncut.Like a raw carbon fossil.The character portrayals carry with them the most profound amount of depth that comes from someones deeply forrowed forehead.(for that matter his cortex too).He has inspired me to pursue my education with a higher cause,and raise my standards.If only everyone read Segal.They could get easy jobs.Proffessional shrinks?.Just kidding.
Anyway my all time favourite characters in fiction are created by Segal.
Thank you for acknowledging the considerable number of Indian fans out there.(I originally came across this while searching for tamil sites for my mom.;))
Aurevoir,
vivek.s.iyengar

hi
i have read love story, man, woman and child, only love, and acts of faith. to me, the most outstanding of all were love story and acts of faith. in acts of faith, i realized that whatever be your religion, your own individual connection to your creator is the thing that matters most, and that love is a manifestation of this connection. erich segal has outdone himself in this book. do read it!

Have you ever heard of Prizes, written by Erich Segal? I can not believe that nobody heard of that novel? Was it translated into other languages?

I have read ALL of Erich Segals fictional books. I read THE CLASS first and it has remained my favorite although I read all eight books in a continuous cycle. Acts of Faith is a good second with such an intruiging look at how various religions intertwine. DOCTORS is also a close third with such a wealth of medical reference one almost feels like a doctor (great reading for those of us with medical educations)!
I cannot wait for the next release!

I am currently working my way through his novels. The Class mesmerized me, and I didn't think that Doctors could possibly be as good. But it was even better! Now I'm reading Acts of Faith, and I think every book is better than the last.
