The best books on death and mortality
“Tolstoy's 1886 novella remains one of the most psychologically precise accounts of dying: the denial, the isolation, the realization that one has lived for appearances rather than truth. It is short enough to read in an afternoon and dense enough to think about for years. Gawande cites it directly in Being Mortal.”
