Status Updates From La mort d'Ivan Ilitch suivi...

Today I read the 3rd and 4th chapters. It was funny when his wife called him an “idiot, stupid moaner”. I connected with the part where Ivan feels like his life is poisoned and poisons the life of others. I think I’ve felt that way before.

Pretty good so far. Wasn’t sure about this book after the 2nd and 3rd chapters. Thought he was just gonna describe Ivan’s dining room layout the whole book. But it is starting to get more interesting. Logging this for the other day

Finished the death of Ivan ilyich! I think it’s a very interesting take on death, especially from the perspective of illness, which I don’t think is a very common one in like the genres I read. He should’ve kissed Gerasim btw
