Not the book I was expecting, I'm afraid. Junger is a non-fiction writer I've followed for years but for me, this book had too much jargon, too much medical detail. I wanted more critical thinking about dying, the end of life, philosophical musings about the winter of our years. There was some but it was buried in all the minutiae about his particular situation, medical condition, details of the build-up to the near-fatal event and not enough examination of how his thinking, feeling, life changed as a result of this happening.
