Irrespective of being a rather touching day-by-day account of Simone de Beauvoir mother's death and thus a very personal description it is also profoundly moving as to one's own thoughts about death, life's regretful feelings and memories.
It may sound strange that I have (lately) been reading books on ageing, life's reflections and now death, but such matters do surface from time to time despite the fact that in regards to this latest issue "le malheur, c'est que cette aventure commune à tous, chacun la vit seul" ... according to the author ...
A book worth reading any time ...
