We have a bit of thinking matter for you this week in the form of crime writer and essayist Henning Mankell's final book Quicksand: What It Means to Be a Human Being.
From the back of the book:
"In January 2014 Henning Mankell was informed he had cancer. However, Quicksand is not a book about death and destruction, but about what it means to be human. He writes about love and jealousy, about courage and fear. And about what it is like to live with a potentially fatal illness."
