This paper is an attempt to answer the above-mentioned question through Saramago's novel, the "Death at Intervals”. Saramago fictionalized how future would be without death in the public place and in the world of emotion. In the public place all the churches, the state, the security, justice all the institutions functioning through the death of man go bankrupt and chaos occurs. In the world of emotion, death comes out with a completely different identity, and no one dies again. This time the reason is different.
