What a beautiful and touching story! What starts off as a narrative reminiscent of Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol", with the devil appearing to the main character who is about to die, soon develops into something uniquely profound. The protagonist, faced with the devil's offer to extend his life in exchange for making things disappear from the world, embarks on a journey of self-discovery.

As he parts with items he once deemed essential, he uncovers deeper truths about what truly matters in life. The story is not just about loss, but also about reconciliation and understanding the essence of a well-lived life. The protagonist's relationship with his cat, Cabbage, becomes a poignant symbol of love and companionship, ultimately teaching him the true meaning of life.

Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys thought-provoking stories about the human experience, life, and love in the face of mortality.
