Death of a Young Man is the fictional memoir of David Bloch, who has been told by his doctor that he has only a year to live. Determined to record the phenomenon of death as objectively as possible, he studies it to the point of becoming obsessed - dreams of murder, accidents, & suicide permeate his every thought until he can no longer distinguish between imagination and reality. The setting is the Hyde Park district of Chicago in the 1920s. /Dust Jacket Included.
