“She never could resist watching someone hurtling headlong into catastrophe.”
― Murder at Maybridge Castle
― Murder at Maybridge Castle
“It's not a disaster; it's a dramatic term. It's all through the literature on ancient theater. Four stages: prologue, protasis, epitasis, catastrophe. The catastrophe is the moment when it all hangs on the precipice. If it goes one way, it's a tragedy, and everyone will probably die; if it goes the other, it's a comedy, and everyone will get their happy ending.”
