Infinite Life

About this book

'I said no one should ever try to recreate this. This is agony in its purest form.'Five women in Northern California lie outside on chaises longues and philosophise. But can you ever communicate what it feels like to be inside your own body?Infinite Life is a surprisingly funny inquiry into the complexity of suffering, and what it means to desire in a body that’s failing. It was first produced in a co-production between the National Theatre, London, and Atlantic Theater Company, New York, and performed at both theatres in 2023, directed by James Macdonald.
