John Limon
Death’s Following refuses the call of twentieth-century philosophy to face death heroically, advocating instead the mediocrity of Heidegger’s “they-self” and its inauthentic, distanced relation to death. Through literary criticism and autobiography, the book considers mediocrity the privileged site for imagining eternal absence: mediocrity as practice for being forgotten.
