In England, every year the BBC broadcasts a speech by a famous and authoritative person on topical topics as part of the Dimbley lecture. In 2010, for the first time in its history, such a lecture was given by a writer, Sir Terry Pratchett The theme “Shacking the Hand of Death” was dedicated to the legalization of euthanasia in England.
The writer himself could not hold a lecture, his friend, the actor who played in one of the adaptations of his books, Tony Robinson, read for him. In 2007, 61-year-old Pratchett was diagnosed with an extraordinary form of early-stage Alzheimer’s disease. Since then, the writer has repeatedly stated that he is not going to wait for complete brain damage and wants to die with the help of euthanasia in his favorite garden or library.
Terry Pratchett is the creator of the Flat World series. His novels have sold over 50 million copies. Terry Pratchett was awarded the Order of the British Empire for literary merit, and Queen Elizabeth II knighted him. close
