Post-Mortem - Patricia Cornwell

[EXCERPTS]

"The dead have never bothered me. It is the living I fear...."

"You artists think you're the only ones who can relate to these things [separation]. Many of us have the same feelings, the same emptiness, the same loneliness. But we don't have the tools to verbalize them. So we carry on, we struggle. Feelings are feelings. I think people's feelings are pretty much the same all over the world."
