The story revolves around a group of forty men who have been granted immortality by a mysterious elixir. The protagonist, Evariste Gamelin, is a struggling artist who becomes obsessed with the idea of obtaining immortality and joins the group. However, he soon discovers that immortality comes at a great cost and must grapple with the moral implications of living forever.
