The Second "Spinoza's Consultation Room" Sosuke Natsukawa
Tap here for the first impression
Sosuke Natsukawa's "Spinoza's Consultation Room" sequel came out I don't know when I saw it on SNS, but relatively soon after the release date in October, it was also placed in a small library in my city.
I found the title in the corner of this month's new book, and when I thought about borrowing it excitedly, of course it was ahead of me, and I made a reservation crying.
If you like it that much, you can buy it, but if the wallet is thin, the place to put it is not good, so I will buy it someday but I want to read it first. Please forgive me.
So, before my turn comes, I decided to re-read Spinoza, which I read a year ago.
At that time, it was about half a year after my mother died, so only that part seemed dark, but now that one year has passed since then, the impression has changed considerably.
That's why books are interesting. The same book turns into something completely different depending on the surrounding environment and feelings.
Is your doctor a scientist or a philosopher?
Neither is a mistake.
It's not possible without either.
I thought so.
In the last chapter, Dr. Machi went for a walk and talked about his thoughts with his nephew. It was here that I realized the meaning of the title of this book for the first time. It was there that Dr. Machi faced medical treatment.
The title of the sequel is "Prescription of Epicurus."
I'm looking forward to reading more and more.
私も『スピノザの診察室』を読み返した経験がありますが、時間や環境が変わると同じ本でも受け取り方が大きく変わることに驚きました。この作品は、哲学者スピノザの思想を背景に医療現場の葛藤や患者との向き合い方を描いており、ただの医療小説ではありません。例えば、主人公のマチ先生が科学者と哲学者、どちらの視点も持ち合わせているという描写は、現代医療の複雑さを象徴しているように感じました。 また、最終章での思想対話のシーンでは、私自身も日常の中で考えさせられることが多く、医療だけでなく人生と向き合うヒントが詰まっています。続編のタイトル『エピクロスの処方箋』からも、さらに別の哲学的テーマが展開されることが予想されて、待ち遠しく感じています。 読んでいる間、図書館での予約待ちというもどかしい体験も共感できますが、それもまた読書の楽しみの一部。経済的理由やスペース問題で購入を控える気持ちも同じで、誰しもが経験するリアルな読書スタイルです。こうした個人的なエピソードを通じて、本の深さだけでなく読書という行為自体の魅力を再認識できました。 これから読む人には、ぜひ一度は通読した後に時間を置いて再び手に取ることをおすすめしたいです。違った心境で新しい発見や感動がきっとあるでしょう。
