- mikeleeorg 15y agoWe all — in the end — die in medias res. In the middle of a story. Of many stories. This line is so beautifully & hauntingly crafted. I wish I had thought to add her books to my reading list sooner.
- jjtheblunt 15y agoThe idea is great, but it's not "in media res" which means "INTO the midst of things" not "IN the midst of things". She might not have had Latin, so may not have known it was a literary technique in Latin, and perhaps Greek, a way to start a story with no intro, just by jumping right into the action.
- F_J_H 15y ago"INTO the midst of things" things could be very fitting as well, depending on your thoughts on the after life. Some choose to believe we join a party already in full swing...
