About this book
In a world where autonomy is sacrificed for the illusion of security, "Life Sentence" by James V. McConnell delves into the chilling implications of a society that treats its citizens as perpetual wards of the state. As Oliver Symmes navigates the twilight of his life, he confronts the stark reality of aging and the loss of personal agency. This thought-provoking novella raises essential questions about the nature of freedom and the unalienable rights of individuals in a controlled environment. Ideal for students and civic activists, this narrative challenges readers to reflect on the balance between societal safety and personal liberty, making it a crucial read for anyone interested in the intersections of ethics, governance, and human dignity.
