The Trouble With Being Born
(Autor) E.M. CioranDisaster, according to the caustically brilliant philosopher E. M. Cioran, lies not in the prospect of our deaths, but in the fact of our birth, that 'laughable accident'. In these pessimistic, nihilistic and darkly funny aphorisms, he strips the human condition down to its most basic and grapples with questions such as the passing of time, our inability to live in the world or just make ourselves get out of bed in the morning.
