NOTEBOOK, THE

Set amid the austere beauty of coastal North Carolina in 1946, 'The notebook' begins with the story of Noah Calhoun, a rural Southerner returned home from World War II. At 31, Noah Calhoun, is haunted by images of the girl he lost more than a decade earlier. At 29, socialite Allie Nelson is about to marry a wealthy lawyer, but she cannot stop thinking about the boy who long ago stole her heart. Like a puzzle within a puzzle, the story of Noah and Allie is just the beginning. As it unfolds, their tale miraculously becomes something different, with much higher stakes.
