Status Updates From The Magic Mountain

After this, I'm going to read the most cheerful, hopeful, optimistic book known to man. I know I'm learning a lot and I'm grateful for the process. But one can only stand so much of this. I'm constantly thinking about death, as I'm reading this, how I'm going to die, how my loved ones are going to die; how death itself is a part of life. It sounds obvious, but this book makes it evident to an extreme.
