Reseña del libro "At Death's Door (en Inglés)"

Recently widowed Portia is convinced she cannot live without her husband, Jonathan. She remembers that years ago the two of them had made a pact 'If one of us dies, then the other should as well.' .As her loneliness overwhelms her, Portia searches out Death's Door, a residential assisted death franchise, that advertises 'death for anyone, on his or her own terms.' At odds with her adult daughter, Bethany, who believes this would be suicide, Portia moves in. Through the eyes of some of the residents-- life and the power of death plays out. There is Stephen, an Army vet suffering from PTSD and chronic depression; Lucy, a psychiatrist suffering from recurring cancer; Vida and her three strokes; and Rob, a young woman who had tried to commit suicide for ten years, and who initially wants to die, but then changes her mind and fights her parents in court to stay alive.This is a novel that challenges our ideas of life and of death. Onlinebookclub gave the book 4 stars out of 4. "It is a heart-wrenching book that forces readers to ask big questions about life and death, and it challenges the norm by providing unconventional ideas. Readers will find themselves questioning what they would do if they found themselves in Portia's shoes."
