| Summary | "A Dead Man's Diary" by Coulson Kernahan is a narrative work written in the late 19th century. The book presents a unique fictional account of the afterlife, as narrated by a character who documents his experiences after being pronounced dead and then returning to life. It explores themes of life, death, and the soul’s journey through various states of existence, with a focus on moral and philosophical reflections. The opening of "A Dead Man's Diary" introduces the reader to the thoughts and fears of the narrator regarding death and existence. The narrator expresses a haunting dread of dying alone and reflects on his illness leading to death, while contemplating where his soul has gone during that time. He describes the loneliness and terror associated with the thought of death, positioned between existential awareness and a yearning for life. As he begins his diary, he is determined to recount his profound reflections on death and the afterlife, setting a contemplative tone that will likely be prevalent throughout the rest of the narrative.
