Klappentext
From the New York Times bestselling author of The Friend comes a life-affirming novel about choosing to die.A woman visits a friend who is dying of cancer. Brilliant and stubborn, her friend makes a momentous request. She wishes to end her life on her own terms - and she wants
the narrator's help. Stricken, she agrees. 'I promise,' says the friend, 'to make it as much fun as possible.'
What follows is an extraordinary tale of a friendship given the greatest test: to witness, unflinching, its end. It is also a portrait of the way we live now, in a world endlessly troubled by crises, and the dramatically changing nature of human relationships in our time.
[We hope to get quotes for this book but in the meantime please use these quotes.]
