Harvard Club of San Francisco Reading Group: The Death of Ivan Ilych by Leo Tolstoy
(Peter Carson translation recommended)
Hailed as one of the world's supreme masterpieces on the subject of death and
dying, The Death of Ivan Ilyich is the story of a worldly careerist, a high court
judge who has never given the inevitability of his dying so much as a passing thought.
But one day, death announces itself to him, and to his shocked surprise, he is brought
face to face with his own mortality.
Read the book then bring your thoughts and perspective to a lively discussion.
