Hypochondriac Hitman Book Description

Mr. He has to finish the last job he got as a hitman... He has to, because it is a moral obligation for him to finish this job for which he was paid in advance, because he has Kantian morality. However, he has only one problem to overcome: Mr. Y. has only one day left to live...

Or two.

The hypochondriac hitman Mr. Y. is almost at birth. Since then, he goes to bed every evening with the certainty that he will not see the next day. Because he has suffered from so many diseases... He also suffers from chronic misfortune. He devoted everything to his profession and tried to relieve his loneliness with the life stories of famous hypochondriacs such as Poe, Proust, Voltaire, Tolstoy and Molière, who were known to suffer from imaginary, psychological or great physical pain in the world of literature and philosophy. In this last job, he follows his target for a long time, then it's time for the final blow. But every time chronic bad luck or rare symptoms intervene. Mr. Y. will resort to new methods after each unsuccessful attempt, while revealing surprising commonalities with the famous hypochondriacs whose lives he studied...

“[Proust] had been predicting his death for so many years that he no longer had any friends. Neither his critics nor his publisher nor his readers believed him. But, despite their mistrust and skepticism, Mr. Proust eventually died.

His physician said it was from an attack of bronchitis. His death is known to have been caused by vertigo, ear infection, uremia, influenza, facial paralysis, heart infarction, a brain tumor, and failure to find lost time. During those years when he was haunted by bad luck, Mr. Proust was never afraid of illness. The only thing he was afraid of was dying before completing his work, just like me.”
