He can also choose to fall in love with the same person as a previous life or move on to someone new.įinally, during one of his lives, he learns that there are others like himself who call themselves the Kalachakra which I believe was Buddhist terminology for the wheel of time. For example, throughout his lives, Harry has lived in an amazing variety of places such as England, Russia, China, and the United States. So in this way, he does have free will to live whatever kind of life he wants, to go in whatever direction he wants. What’s interesting though, is that he doesn’t live the exact same life and he can choose to do whatever he wants during his lifetime, whether it be teaching at a university, becoming a scientist, a lawyer, a doctor, or a physicist, living in Russia - whatever he wants to do. It’s also worth mentioning is that Harry is extraordinarily gifted in that he was a mnemonic, meaning he remembers every single detail from each of his lives. Think of the movie “Groundhog Day” except for an entire lifetime. Once he reaches the age of 6 or 7, all of his memories return, complete with all of the knowledge he’s amassed in his previous lives. But it’s the same life, and he always returns to exactly where he began: as his mother gave birth to him in the ladies restroom. The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August follows our main character Harry August who lives his life, over and over and over.
