THE SILVER LININGS PLAYBOOK -- MATTHEW QUICK

In The Silver Linings Playbook, lead character Pat Peoples has been through a lot in his 34 years. Recently released after an extended stay in a mental health facility, Pat is working to put his life back together. His ultimate goal: to reunite with his estranged wife, Nikki.
Pat narrates his efforts to move forward, supplying his own soundtrack to life events. He's accompanied on his journey by Tiffany, an equally damaged woman who involves him in activities beyond his obsession with physical fitness and his loyalty to the Philadelphia Eagles. By sharing their brokenness, the two eventually come to a place where they share common ground and find healing.
