Better Dead is a satirical and darkly humorous novel by J. M. Barrie that tells the story of Andrew McCunn, a well-meaning but misguided young man who sets out to rid the world of ""undesirable"" people. His absurd mission leads him into a series of increasingly bizarre and comical situations, as he grapples with the moral and ethical implications of his actions. As McCunn's plan spirals out of control, Better Dead unfolds as a sharp social satire that pokes fun at the absurdities of Victorian society, its moral pretensions, and the consequences of misguided idealism. J. M. Barrie's wit and keen sense of irony shine in this early work, offering readers a blend of dark humour and biting social commentary. Better Dead is a clever and entertaining read that showcases Barrie's ability to combine humour with deeper reflections on morality and human nature.
