This episode of BookShook is all about the first half of The Death of Ivan Ilyich (up to Chapter 6 on page 61) by the Russian author Leo Tolstoy (translated by Anthony Briggs), first published in 1886.

In the podcast, I take a book, split it in two, and discuss each half in consecutive shows. I’ll briefly summarise the half alongside my thoughts and reactions and raise any ideas that resonated with me. But be warned - there will be spoilers - (but for this show only up to half way). I’d love to share your thoughts on the book so send an an email to bookshook @yahoo.com. Also, let me know if any book suggestions you may have. Welcome to BookShook”
