Turns out, the opposite of not dying is not living. Call it "paranormal phenomena" or a "death strike" or just a welcomed weirdness, "humanity's greatest dream since the beginning of time, the happy enjoyment of eternal life here on earth, had become a gift within the grasp of everyone." But as every fulfilled wish has its unexpected down side, so does this one.
What if we lived forever? That philosophical question plays out literally in José Saramago's latest wonderfully absurd and meditative novel, "Death With Interruptions." On New Year's Day, in an unnamed country, people stop dying.
