The Inevitable: A Journey into the World of Assisted Dying
"The Inevitable" is a captivating and deeply disturbing book that has been recognized as the Book of the Year in both the Spectator and the Times. Written by award-winning journalist Katie Engelhart, this powerful and moving exploration delves into one of society's most enduring taboos: assisted dying.
Through her extensive research and compelling storytelling, Engelhart takes readers on a global journey to hear the stories of individuals who are seeking a dignified and compassionate end to their lives. From Avril, an 80-year-old British woman who illegally imports pentobarbital to the Australian doctor dispensing suicide manuals online, Engelhart showcases a diverse range of characters and their unique journeys.
What makes "The Inevitable" so compelling is its ability to provoke intense emotions while simultaneously interrogating our most uncomfortable moral questions. Should a young woman facing imminent paralysis be allowed to end her life with the help of a doctor? Should we have the freedom to choose death over the pain and debilitation of dementia? Or should we embrace the inevitability of old age and find meaning in every moment?
Engelhart's deeply reported portrait of everyday people struggling to make impossible decisions sheds crucial light on what it means to flourish, live, and die. She challenges our preconceived notions and encourages us to think critically about the choices we make and the values we uphold. "The Inevitable" is a thought-provoking and important book that will undoubtedly spark debate and discussion among readers of all ages and backgrounds.
