A story becomes a story oce it has an ending, and there is no ending more powerful than death. The story of Romeo and Juliet begins when Romeo and Juliet die. The story of Othello. The story of Anna Karenina. The story of Madam Bowery, until their deaths, there is no Story. But what is the story of death itself?
