The Immortals

 The narrator of The Immortals, an immortal, describes the world from before life up until the end it.  Through the rise and fall of civilizations and time periods the narrator becomes increasingly depressed as death passes him by.  As worldwide nuclear holocaust occurs the narrator comes to grips with the loneliness he has and will experience for eternity.

   I believe the narrator is a reliable source, although mentally unstable. His mental instability, is shown through his ongoing depression, bouts of alcoholism, and suicidal attempts. That also may be argued as fully experiencing his limitless existence. This character relates to everyone, reflecting feelings one might encounter when in doubt that an experience or event will ever end.  All of these things take an emotional toll on the character that helps to enlighten the reader to his views, creating a very interesting story.
