About this listen

The writer and creator of the YouTube channel and production house Pursuit of Wonder brings you his debut book, Notes from the End of Everything.

After being diagnosed with a brain tumor, writer John Gallo spends his time confronting his lifelong sense of fraudulence, regret, and self-misunderstanding, all while loosely chronicling the development of his cancer.

Formed out of a collection of journal-like essays posthumously discovered on his computer, we follow Gallo’s mind as he ruminates on concepts and theories of time, being, death, anxiety, creativity, despair, isolation, happiness, wonder, absurdity, and other eternal themes of life — big and small.

The work carries a tone of existentialism as well as a culmination of other complimentary and sometimes contradictory philosophies that meld into a modern, accessible take that is simultaneously dark and hopeful.

Excellent

Very thought provoking. Since I started watching the pursuit of wonder videos about 9 months ago they started to change my view on everything. This book took it a big step further.

I will need to re-listen 1,000 times to absorb every word

This book punched me right in my brain, in the best possible way. I can truly say it’s one of the most profound works I’ve read.

It feels as though somehow it manages to encompass the questions, theories, and tenets of many of the great classical philosophers, but in the form of a contemporary narrative of the man who is, in many ways, all of us.

I only wish I knew the identity of the author so that I could reach out and thank him.
