A SUITABLE EPITAPH
A Suitable Epitaph
Klavdiya was born on the shore of a small lake in Russia forty years ago...
The woman got married in spring when the cherry trees were in blossom. She was eighteen at the time. She got divorced in autumn when the harsh rains washed the soil and the fallen leaves. She was only twenty-three and she had a young boy attached to her skirts.
...
Klavdiya died on the shore of another lake and on another continent... She’d come into the world restless and with a thirst to exceed the limitations of the world she’d been born to and she died without finding her peace.
