| Summary | "Rich Living" by Michael Cathal is a science fiction novel written in the mid-20th century. The book explores the theme of rejuvenation as it follows the story of Curtis Delman, a centenarian lawyer embarking on a journey to Rejuvenal, a planet where inhabitants can regain youth. As Delman interacts with his fellow passengers, the narrative delves into their motivations for seeking rejuvenation and the implications of living extended lives. The story centers around Curtis Delman and his fellow travelers—a mix of ambitious and flawed characters—on their journey to Rejuvenal. As they confront the reality of aging, their interactions reveal deeper philosophical questions about life's value and the endless pursuit of wealth and youth. After a disaster strikes their transport, leaving them stranded and vulnerable, Delman is forced to confront not only their physical survival but also the existential dilemmas surrounding their quests for youth. Ultimately, the narrative emphasizes the contrast between the complexity of adult lives and the simplicity of a youthful existence, culminating in a newfound perspective on life, love, and purpose as they prepare for the future.
