DUMAS

                                              January 28, 2005


  "... Alexandre Dumas was on top of the
   world.  He had success and the kind of
   power he wanted -- fame, wealth, and
   women.  Everything went swimmingly for
   him, as if he was privileged or had
   made some special pact. And when he
   died, his son, the other Dumas, wrote
   a strange epitaph for him:
   'He died as he lived -- unaware.'"

          -- Corso, in "The Club Dumas"
             by Arturo Perez-Reverte,
             translated by Sonia Soto.
