Alida, Robert, & Kathryn discuss writing death and dying. We all read Edwidge Danticat's book The Art of Death, in Graywolf Press's Art of Series. The slim volume is our jumping off point for delving into the role of death in relation to character arcs, plot, the writer's journey, and the effect these scenes can have on readers.
