Featured Book
In his later years, Emil M. Cioran withdrew from social life. He no longer frequented cafes and refused invitations to dinners. Instead, Cioran spent his time strolling through the Luxembourg Gardens and Parisian cemeteries, along with the occasional excursion to his 'refuge,' the seaside town of Dieppe when he wasn't engrossed in his literary pursuits.

By the mid-80's Cioran grew tired of 'slandering the world and God' and no longer felt the need to write, a turn of events he accepted as a reward for his work rather than a punishment of it. He gave up writing definitively in 1987, though he continued to do interviews during the 1990's.

Alzheimer's disease began slowly deteriorating his mind in the 1990's, just as native country began rediscovering him after the fall of Communism. He fell ill in 1994 and, after a yearlong battle, Emil M. Cioran finally found his long sought bliss in nothingness.
