15 Authors' Epitaphs

I always end up finding some interesting articles to read on the Flavorwire website. I recently found one article written by Emily Temple titled Famous Last Words: 15 Authors’ Epitaphs, in which Temple writes the following:

In this the spookiest of months, we find ourselves occupied with the world’s darker themes, and we got to wondering — what words have sent famous men and women of letters into the great unknown? Or perhaps more precisely, which words were chosen to honor them for eternity? From the tongue-in-cheek to the ponderously serious, from the knightly to the poetic, and even one that doubles as a grave robber’s curse, we’re fascinated by the epitaphs of famous authors, so we’ve collected a few of them here for your shivering pleasure.

Until my next post, happy reading!!
