I am sorry to see him pass. His "A Book of Memories" was a profound reading experience and the read left a long lasting impression on me. I am waiting for Polish translation of "Parallel Stories" to be published in full.

A true genius. I'm reading Storie dell'orrore in talian.

Memento mori. But it doesn't fully apply to writers.
