Listen "The Notebook"
Episode Synopsis
The novel The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks, recounts an epic romance. In the present day, an elderly man named Noah, often referred to as "Duke," reads a shared history from a notebook to his wife, Allie, who is suffering from severe Alzheimer’s disease. The story within the notebook details the passionate, class-divided relationship between Noah and Allie during the 1930s, a love separated by Allie's family and years of war. When Allie returns fourteen years later, engaged to the wealthy and successful Lon Hammond, she must choose between her prescribed future and the intense connection she rekindles with Noah. The narrative concludes with the elderly Noah continuing his daily ritual of reading the story, hoping for a brief "miracle" where Allie recognizes him and remembers the true love that sustained their nearly fifty-year marriage.
