"The question is to know whether as a result of living together, one person's evil thoughts manage to be perceived by the other person, even before they are fully formed, and whether the other person intuits them as already at the conscious phase, deliberately trying to be realized. There is nothing more hurtful than to see someone read into your very depths and only a married couple is capable of it. They do not manage to conceal what is murky in the depths of their soul and they easily foresee each one's intention towards the other, which makes the clear impression of spying on one another which is what, in fact, they are doing. Fearing nothing so much as one's husband's or wife's watchfulness, they wind up disarmed in relation to one another. A judge is sitting beside them, who condemns in embryo every germinating evil desire, whereas, according to society's law, one cannot be held responsible for one's thoughts."Strindberg, The Quarantine Officer's Second Tale, 1902 "THE DANCE OF DEATH certainly exceeds the surface naturalism stressed by earlier critics. Being the fruit of Strindberg's harrowing personal suffering, the play expresses in many surrealistic ways the state of mind of persons engaged in elemental conflicts."Sister Corona Sharp "THE DANCE OF DEATH is a study of the horror of life's spiritual isolation-the loneliness that unhappy intimacy with another only accentuates."Charles Isherwood "In the case of Strindberg, the tragic strain does not exclude the comic, that the two in fact coalesce, become as it were one, in the manner of the modern as distinguished from the classical drama."Alrik Gustafson

A young man is born with a rare gift, the ability to sense the feelings and thoughts of others. He is what is called a "e;Sunday Child"e;. He can almost tap into the minds of others and judge their emotions, their fears, and their doubts. But it is not a power that he can control...it just washes over him. This is a tale of that young man plunged into a family of despair and secrets from years gone by within an old house. He becomes an unwillingly participant in the poisonous lies and deceit that have invaded the house. But then he falls in love with one of the occupants. Now he too, becomes part of the legacy of torment that plagues the house. The Comics Review calls author Gary Reed "e;One of the most underrated comic writers around."e;. Collects issues 1-4.

Nach der Ehe mit Frida Uhl durchlebte Strindberg eine ausgesprochen düstere Phase seines Lebens, in der er unter Wahnvorstellungen, Realitätsverlust und Depressionen litt. Sie wird "Inferno-Krise" genannt, da Strindberg die Erfahrungen dieser Zeit vor allem in dem Roman Inferno, Legenden in Form von autobiografischen, teilweise verklärten Aufzeichnungen verarbeitete. Es ist auch die Zeit, in der Strindberg begann, wissenschaftliche und alchemistische Versuche zu machen. In gewisser Weise gelang es ihm, sich "frei zu schreiben" und so seine psychische Krise zu überwinden. In den folgenden sechs Jahren schrieb er mehr als 25 Stücke. August Strindberg (1849-1912) war ein schwedischer Schriftsteller und Künstler.
