Have we an unalienable right to take our own lives?
That’s the
question author Tom Walker asks in A Day
in the Life, a satirical novel about a retired English professor who sees no reason to go on living.
Diagnosed
with a prostate cancer that may or may not be treatable, George Noel Gordon Bombazine has given himself 16 hours to decide whether to go on
living. Hour by hour, we relive his past as, like Hamlet, he grapples with the
question of whether to be or not to be.
