After Many a Summer Dies the Swan by Aldous Huxley. One of you lists this novel, published in the 1930s, as an all-time-favorite.  From Amazon:  "Hollywood millionaire with a terror of death, whose personal physician happens to be working on a theory of longevity-these are the elements of Huxley's caustic and entertaining satire on man's desire to live indefinitely. New Yorker:  "A highly sensational plot that will keep astonishing you to practically the final sentence."
