Exploring the themes of mortality and human existence, the narrative is sparked by David Shields' fascination with his 97-year-old father's vitality. Blending personal anecdotes with biological insights and philosophical reflections, Shields crafts a humorous family portrait while inviting readers to deeply consider the fleeting nature of life. Drawing on a diverse array of thinkers, the work challenges conventional perspectives and encourages a profound reevaluation of how we perceive our time on earth.
