MOST LOVED. MOST RED. Ten must-read modern classics. ' Even if I' m dying, until I actually die, I am still living. ' We often ask ourselves how we should be living. In Paul Kalanithi' s deeply moving memoir, he is forced to ask himself the question, ' how do you live when you are dying? ' At thirty-six, having just finished his training to become a neurosurgeon, he was faced with a devastating cancer diagnosis. This is his memoir. From student, to doctor, to patient, to father, and to writer, Paul preserved his last years and legacy in this truly unforgettable book. This magnetic, hopeful book was first published in 2016. Adored by millions of readers, it is a Vintage Classic already and a book that will stand the test of time.
