The Death Of A Beekeeper, Paperback / softback Book

The Death Of A Beekeeper Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

In the beginning of the winter thaw, Lars Lennart Westin has learned that he will not live through the spring.

Told through the journals of this schoolteacher turned apiarist, The Death of a Beekeeper is his gentle, courageous, and sometimes comic meditation on living with pain.

Westin has refused to surrender the time left to him to the impersonality of a hospital, preferring to take his fate upon himself, to continue his solitary, reflective life in the Swedish countryside.

While he watches his inner landscape reforming, the relentlessly intimate burning in his gut provides a point of psychological detachment. 'We begin again,' he insists, 'we never give up.'
