'Not to be born is undoubtedly the best plan of all. Unfortunately it is within no one's reach.'
In the book The Trouble With Being Born, E. M. Cioran deals with the big questions of human existence: birth, death, God, the passage of time, the way of relating to others, and how to find motivation to get up in the morning.
Through a series of interconnected aphorisms that are simultaneously pessimistic, poetic, and extremely funny, Cioran discovers a form of joy within his despair, savoring the absurdity and futility of our existence, as well as our inability to live in the world.
Translated by Pulitzer Prize-winning poet and critic Richard Howard, The Trouble With Being Born is a challenging, illuminating testimony of a unique mind.
