To live Forever is a short story about life and death and how very real and necessary each is to our experience. Although the travails of Dr. Harrington are outlandish to some extent, they are also very possible. Most, however, are humbled in far less a fashion, yet we are all brought to understanding at some point and in some way. As you will find alongside the doctor in his dark and perverse path he chooses to take is that it may be easy to forget who you are or were but the realization of why you have become may shock you, especially when the discovery is made that life is far simpler than one has been led to believe. Although fiction, the story is believable and as dark and beautiful as life itself, written as I see and oftentimes would like to see the world, as a visual and literary art masking the gravity that is life and spirituality. At times it is very descriptive and obvious and others elusive and mysterious, an intentional tone given in an idiosyncratic syntax that pulls the reader back and forth between modern terms and thoughts, mid-sentence pauses, personality, flawed speech and communication, highly intelligent and college educated etiquette as well as moments reminiscent to that of a scolding straight from our childhood. To Live Forever does not explain how to find who you are, it shows that we can only truly become who we are meant to be when we stop being afraid of the confines of structure and expectation and come to terms with the fact that our actions, the result of our inner most desires are what truly defines us.
