Exploring profound themes of life, death, and identity, Michael Cohen's essay collection intertwines personal anecdotes with philosophical inquiries. He reflects on significant moments, such as his encounter with Frida Kahlo's remains and his family's tragedies, while also delving into everyday experiences like golfing and amateur astronomy. Through six decades of literary insights, Cohen examines how our names shape us, the nature of hypochondria, and the connections we maintain with the deceased. His contemplative journey is set against the backdrop of his life in Kentucky and Tucson.
