Letters to Momo | Free Book
A Remarkable Story About the Power to Overcome
In September 2010, Alejandro Souza learned that Momo, his cousin and
closest friend in the family, was suddenly imprisoned. Crushed by his
imprisonment and desiring to infuse him with strength, resilience,
and, above all, love, Souza made an unconditional commitment to write
Momo one letter each day for as long as he was in jail. Letters to
Momo is the true, remarkable story about the power to overcome told by
the collection of all letters written to Momo during his 144 days in
prison—intact and in their original state, exactly as he received
them. Uniquely sincere and approachable, the letters’ contemplative
style illuminates core truths about the human experience and invites
all to engage in profound reflection. Through broad thematic
examinations spanning from personal experiences to Persian poetry, and
from Nietzsche to cognitive psychology, the letters’ inspirational
tone leads you away from the traps of victimhood to reclaim the innate
power to author change in your life. With the closing words of each
letter, "I love you with all my heart, and today, let me walk with
you,” Souza holds our hearts and hands as we embark on our own journey
of personal resilience, transcendence, and freedom. Today let these
letters walk with you.
