The Inevitable: Stories of Life, Choice and the Right to Die Katie Engelhart

BOOK OF THE YEAR IN THE SPECTATOR AND THE TIMES

'Fascinating.... Deeply disturbing... Brilliant' Sunday Times
'Powerful and moving.' Louis Theroux

Meet Adam. He's twenty-seven years old, articulate and attractive. He also wants to die. Should he be helped? And by whom?

In The Inevitable, award-winning journalist Katie Engelhart explores one of our most abiding taboos: assisted dying. From Avril, the 80-year-old British woman illegally importing pentobarbital, to the Australian doctor dispensing suicide manuals online, Engelhart travels the world to hear the stories of those on the quest for a 'good death'.

At once intensely troubling and profoundly moving, The Inevitable interrogates our most uncomfortable moral questions. Should a young woman facing imminent paralysis be allowed to end her life with a doctor's help? Should we be free to die painlessly before dementia takes our mind? Or to choose death over old age? A deeply reported portrait of everyday people struggling to make impossible decisions, The Inevitable sheds crucial light on what it means to flourish, live and die.

The Inevitable Bewertungen

There's plenty of compassion, plenty of nuance and plenty of complex thought. Engelhart is a skilled storyteller... Her brilliant book should be prescribed to all those who think they have a clear view [on the right to die]. * Sunday Times *
Powerful and moving. Engelhart recounts the stories of those she meets with humanity and grace. * Louis Theroux, bestselling author of Gotta Get Theroux This *
Deeply researched and beautifully reported... [Engelhart] writes compassionately of her subjects' struggles. * The Economist *

A brilliantly sensitive and deeply moving account of assisted dying.

* Stephen Westaby, Sunday Times bestselling author of Fragile Lives *
