Description: Pain does not fit man's humanity; death is more beautiful, more appropriate. But is the choice between pain and death a fair one? Are painkillers the solution? "I think it's likely that this is the true central point around which the novel revolves. It is a warm dialogue between man-possessed by this sort of pain, produced and protected by injustice such that hopelessness might prevail in approaching the idea of society/watan; that the idea of historiography instead take its place as a bearer of the question of whether pain is useful; and that a separation from this tale of Sisyphean outcomes take place-and reality, with its gloomy construction of outcomes more dangerous still. Ridding oneself of pain, after all, necessitates measures totally incompatible with the available forms of treatment-treatment that preserves the existence of pain while merely increasing one's abilities to bear it."
