Zusammenfassung
On a summer's night in Athens, Patrik Keim stuck a pistol into his mouth and pulled the trigger. Keim was an artist, and the room in which he died was an assemblage of the tools of his particular trade. His body completed the tableau. This is a two-sided ethnography: one from the world of the living and the other from the world of the dead.

Allen C. Shelton is an associate professor of sociology at Buffalo State College, SUNY, and the author of Dreamworlds of Alabama. He lives in Buffalo, New York, next to Billy Sunday's first church and an old Italian grocery store, and within a half-mile of an abandoned nineteenth-century asylum. There are no pine trees.
