The Trouble With Being Born by E.M. Cioran (English) Paperback Book

Description: The Trouble With Being Born by E.M. Cioran, Richard Howard Darkly comic aphorisms on time, mortality and human relationships from one of the twentieth centurys great philosophersNot to be born is undoubtedly the best plan of all. Unfortunately it is within no ones reach.In The Trouble With Being Born, E. M. Cioran grapples with the major questions of human existence- birth, death, God, the passing of time, how to relate to others and how to make ourselves get out of bed in the morning.In a series of interlinking aphorisms which are at once pessimistic, poetic and extremely funny, Cioran finds a kind of joy in his own despair, revelling in the absurdity and futility of our existence, and our inability to live in the world.Translated by Pulitzer Prize-winning poet and critic Richard Howard, The Trouble With Being Born is a provocative, illuminating testament to a singular mind. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Author Biography E. M.
