The Death of Ivan Ilyich

Ivan Ilyich, a high court judge, becomes seriously ill and faces a long and gruelling battle with death. The Death of Ivan Ilyich is more than a story about death, however. It leads the reader through a pensive, metaphysical exploration of the reason for death and what it means to truly live. German philosopher Martin Heidegger refers to the novella as an illustration of Being towards death.

PredictableThe story is about Ivan who lives an almost happy life until he realises the world doesn’t revolve around him and that death is inevitable. The reason I didn’t like this book enough to give 3/5 was because Ivan lacked empathy and he seemed self centred and cold hearted at few instances..
