In Delos, You Cannot Die

By: Javier Ruescas

Narrated by: Josh Hurley, Kevin Free

Now that I have discovered what death is, I am overwhelmed by how long I have left to live... It is not a manner of speaking, nor is it a metaphor. My name is Oliver and until eight days ago I did not know that word and the weight of its meaning. No one had ever uttered that word around me. Furthermore, as far as I knew, no one had ever died. But knowing the term does not cover its immensity. Not then, not now.

In Delos death does not exist. It is a model community in the north of the world, where there is no place for suffering, disease, or pain. The people of Delos are happy. And Oliver too, until his best friend leaves and he decides to go looking for him... without knowing that it will be a one way trip.

Spanish author and Booktuber, Javier Ruescas brings us a deep, emotional and captivating story about the value of life and the importance of being yourself. A modern tale that reminds us of the importance of taking advantage of every minute and how dangerous fear can be if we let it rule us.
