Blyth Strachman of Premise will be leading another enriching evening of thoughtful dialogue and community connection. We will explore the question, “Does thinking about death lead to a good life?” by examining two selected works; a narrative by Leo Tolstoy and an essay by Virginia Woolf.
“The Death of Ivan Ilyich” by Leo Tolstoy - A narrative of existential crisis, this text invites deep reflection on life’s value as Ivan Ilyich confronts his own mortality. ~30 pages
“The Death of the Moth” by Virginia Woolf - A brief but powerful essay, Woolf’s work uses the image of a moth’s final struggle to explore life’s fragility and the inevitability of death. ~3 pages
Light refreshments will be provided as we engage in open, inclusive conversation in a warm and welcoming setting.
