Still Trendy After All These Years
Writer Ambrose Bierce probably died in Mexico about 1914, though no one seems to know exactly when, where or how he made his exit. Over the years his works have been annotated, debated, and even made into musicals. Young people tuned into the Goth lifestyle have rediscovered his talent for turning life and death into quirky partners that parallel their own demons of discomfort as they try to fit into this circus tent of a world that's been passed down to them by previous generations.
The saying is that dead men tell no tales, but Ambrose is still making the news.
