Lena eventually reveals to him that she is actually an Invalid and has never been cured. Julian Fineman giving a speech on behalf of the DFA in the Delirium Pilot. At first Julian hesitates to talk to Lena but later starts to get more comfortable, and shares stories with her from his past which he has never shared with anyone.

Lena Haloway, the protagonist, first sees Julian at a DFA meeting. When he turned sixteen, he had a tumour removed for the last time and was subsequently declared cancer free.ĭespite it being the law, Julian was not cured on his eighteenth birthday as the doctors believed the cure would be deadly after so many operations he had had previously. He would go on to be the perfect role model for the DFA because he believed that without the cure, there was only chaos and disorder. His brother's death had a profound influence on Julian. It was eventually revealed that his brother was one of the protestors and though he was severely injured, his father decided to lock him in the basement, something for which Julian stated he would never forgive him for. It turned out to be a complete disaster as protestors came in and the whole thing turned violent. When he was eleven, he attended his first DFA rally. He had it removed but the cancer returned for several more years. The next day he had his seizure and was taken to the doctor where he was informed that he had a brain tumor. His father walked in on him there one day and beat him until he blacked out.

When he was nine, he snuck into his dad's secret study and read novels and listened to music which was forbidden due to its praise of deliria. He had an older, unnamed brother and the two were close. Julian Fineman was born in New York to Thomas Fineman and an unnamed mother. Julian Fineman is the son of Thomas Fineman, and leader of the youth section of the DFA.
