The Way We Live Now (short story)
"The Way We Live Now" is a short story by Susan Sontag which was published to great acclaim on November 24, 1986 in ''The New Yorker''. The story describes the beginnings of the AIDS crisis in the early 1980s, as the disease began to claim members of the New York cultural elite.
The story is told entirely in the form of fragments of conversation, mentioned and whispered by numerous friends of an unnamed man who lies sick in a hospital bed. Although AIDS was new to many who read the story when it first appeared, "The Way We Live Now" remains a signature work in the literature of the epidemic.〔Carl Edmund Rollyson, Lisa Olson Paddock. ''Susan Sontag: the making of an icon page''. 2000, 264-6〕
Sontag borrowed her title from an 1875 novel by British writer Anthony Trollope called ''The Way We Live Now''.
"The Way We Live Now" is not about the unnamed main character, but his friends. This short story uses narrative summary, and although it may lead one to believe that the man has AIDS, it is completely irrelevant to the narrative development. When reading the story, one might think that it has a spastic, multi-layered voice. The different characters keep rambling on about their personal lives, and there are quite a few of them, as most go unnamed. The central character is also unnamed because it doesn't matter what his name is; the story essentially isn't about him at all, rather the ravages of the illness and its impact on the protagonist's circle of friends.
