A whilst ago, the small print of the novel "Death with Interruptions" have no longer left my imagination. In fact, the concept of experiencing an “epidemic” that is so close to us is very exciting and strange, and it calls for distinct things in the minds of each of us.
About myself my reminiscence overflowed with all the literary works I had formerly read in which the epidemic had a share. It is a theme that Jose Saramago has labored on with superb talent in extra than one work. In the novel "Death with Interruptions" by means of this creator, death is reduce off from an complete city, at first and at first glance it seems good.
And wonderful, however the fact is definitely different. Saramago puts earlier than us a exceptional philosophical thought about the real usefulness of things which man is accustomed to deal with forcibly, a very strange idea; In this, he goes to the most that a man or woman can accept, such as death, as that rejected thing turns into an unbridled wish for people, and even a desire for which the most precious can be paid.
The importance of dying seems in order for life to continue, and this is what emerges from the thrilling details of the novel, for lifestyles is insupportable except death, and notwithstanding the contradiction that is challenging to comprehend at first glance, some reflection on the shape of lifestyles if all human beings remained the same, to attain the most degrees of existence with all Their ache and illness do no longer move to the other aspect of the health facility beds barring movement, neither are they alive nor are they dead.
Everything is suspended, at a catastrophic point for those whose movements are based totally on “death”, such as the health sector, burials of the dead, coffin makers... and others.
It is real that the novel presents the ironic aspect of this tragedy - the absence of death - but it presents an possibility to ponder lifestyles on our exclusive levels, and this is what I discovered in it an chance for a new tradition totally one of a kind from what we used to suppose about many things in our lives.
An probability to ponder life barring disease, or experiences without feeling fear; Or, for example, relationships without the pain of loss, and besides pain. Is there that means besides evils on earth! I do now not ask for these calamities at all, however it is an probability to deal with it from a specific perspective, a perspective that accepts it and offers with it as a painful however essential truth to whole the that means of happiness, a tragic fact for the ripening of the lifestyles process, a sleepless foundation for us to anchor on the shore of tranquility.
