Description
A best fiction book of 2021 for The Times
Determined to die with dignity, Kay and her husband, Cyril - both healthy and vital medical professionals in their early 50s - make a pact: to commit suicide together once they’ve both turned 80.
A lot can change in 30 years, however....
By turns hilarious and touching, playful and grave, Should We Stay or Should We Go portrays 12 parallel universes, each exploring a possible future for Kay and Cyril. Do they honour their agreement? And if not, will they live to regret it?
Commentaires
"Should We Stay or Should We Go by Lionel Shriver. A married couple decide on a suicide pact to avoid the indignities of old age, in a satire on society’s attitudes to ageing that plays with multiple endings." (Guardian, 2021 in Books: What to Look Forward to this Year)
"The Cassandra of American letters." (New York Times)
"Readers will be entranced by Shriver’s freewheeling meditation on mortality and human agency." (Publishers Weekly)
