It would not be incorrect to say that The End of Your Life Book Club by Will Schwalbe is about a son’s relationship with his dying mother during the last two years of her life. But really, and wonderfully, The End of Your Life Book Club is a book about reading and loving books.In fact, at one point Schwalbe describes a book, The Elegance of the Hedgehog, in a way that could just as easily be a description of The End of Your Life Book Club: “The Elegance of the Hedgehog is, in many ways, a book about books (and films): what they can teach us, and how they can open up worlds. But it’s really like most great books, about people – and the connections they make, how they save one another and themselves.”
