A remarkable companionship. An eternity of tales.
It starts here, their last one.
Life is not long. Nobody is more aware of this than Lenni, a seventeen-year-old resident of the terminal ward. But as she is about to discover, it counts who you live life with more than just what you create of it.
Ignoring the doctor's directions, she enrols in an art class where she meets 83-year-old Margot, a patient from the next ward who is a rebellious soul. When they discover they had spent an incredible century together, they instantly become close.
They decide to paint their life stories—of getting old and keeping youthful, of giving delight, of receiving compassion, of losing love, and of discovering the one who is everything—in honour of their shared century.
It becomes abundantly evident that Lenni and Margot's lives are far from over as their remarkable relationship grows.
THE ONE HUNDRED YEARS OF LENNI AND MARGOT is a fiercely vivid, unexpectedly humorous, and intensely emotional story that celebrates our unending ability to remain friends and love each other at our time of greatest need. It also explores the amazing gift of life even when it is about to die.
