The Alchemist Cookbook 2016
the loss of kaspar: once i had the omen & sign of a black cat dead (called nemo) & after a period of mourning, which was 3 days of crossing the place of his death, laid him to rest in a pyre & later dreamt a premonition of my own death,

Sixty in September: 10/60

The Others 2001
Nicole Kidman descending the staircase,
