Death

About this film

LibriVox recording of Death by Maurice Maeterlinck. (Translated by Alexander Teixeira de Mattos.) Read in English by LibriVox Volunteers. "The more we dread it, the more dreadful it becomes..." Death by Maurice Maeterlinck explores the cultural and societal fear of death and examines the reasoning behind these fears to spark a conversation to understand death as it is, and not as we fear it to be. Maeterlinck provides a number of hypotheses and fascinating questions rather than ready-made answers in this literary piece. - Summary by Jessica Zdanowicz For further information, including links to online text, reader information, RSS feeds, CD cover or other formats (if available), please go to the LibriVox catalog page for this recording.
