The novel takes its title from the lyrics of a commercium song commonly known as Gaudeamus igitur:
Vita nostra brevis est Brevi finietur. Venit mors velociter Rapit nos atrociter Nemini parcetur.translated to English as:
Our life is brief Soon it will end. Death comes quickly Snatches us cruelly To nobody shall it be spared.Plot
The novel opens with Sasha Samokhina vacationing at the beach with her mother. During their stay a man appears who at first follows Sasha at a distance, later making contact with her in what appears to be a dream. He gives Sasha a strange and non-negotiable series of tasks, ultimately drawing her away from her family to a remote university. There she studies with other young adults who, like her, are enrolled against their will.
