A Life Without End is, appropriately enough, a lively wallow. Death may be a dark subject, but Beigbeder's semi-fiction is almost relentlessly upbeat and cheerful, the author aware of the absurdity of his ambition and undertaking, but clearly also well-practiced in faking it for an audience and putting on a good show, which he does.

This book is about a man (Stan Miller) who had a lifelong difficulty accepting the fact that life is finite and death inevitable, and who, despite becoming a respected biology professor, marrying the woman of his dreams, and raising a family, could not reconcile his love of life with the knowledge that someday it all must end.
Accompanied by his ten-year-old daughter and her robot friend, Frédéric crisscrosses the globe to meet the world’s foremost researchers on human longevity, who—from cell rejuvenation and telomere lengthening to 3D-printed organs and digitally stored DNA—reveal their latest discoveries.
