Eternal Life

By: Dara Horn

Format: 256 pages, Paperback

Rachel is a woman with a problem: she can’t die. Her recent troubles—widowhood, a failing business,…

"That's the problem. We don't grow. We're like an old book, full of stories and also full of errors, and no one can completely understand us, even though many people try. But the problem is that we don't change. Only the people around us change."

-Dara Horn, Eternal Life

"She didn’t know exactly when she had first felt the sensation of regret. It was a physical sensation, a shudder that began deep in the stomach and traveled up through the throat; it was distinct from remorse, which one felt first in the throat and only later in the gut. Yet it was regret that she couldn’t handle. She did anything she could to avoid it—including the initial bargain, the one that began everything. And now this one."
