This novel treats the two themes of incurable diseases and euthanasia at various levels to bring into focus a web of dense arguments legal and medical woven together that never tire the readers in their attempts to grapple with issues of human suffering, disease and death and its over-arching subject of sympathy, pity and humanity.
