Dans son roman, aux frontières du récit d’anticipation, l’une des meilleures écrivaines québécoises illustre les possibles dérives de l’aide médicale à mourir. ★★★☆☆
The main idea of the book "Sur les hauteurs du mont Thoreau" by Catherine Mavrikakis is a critique of the possible ethical and moral pitfalls of physician-assisted suicide.
The story centers around Clarissa Gardner, a manipulative figure who runs a luxurious clinic offering "beautiful deaths" with a view of the ocean. The novel uses irony and wit to expose the commercialization of death and the potential for abuse within ethically complex environments like assisted dying.
