“Either the nation of the dead will come to be seen as an isolated phenomenon of the twentieth century – in which case history will want to know more and more about its make-up and characteristics. Or it will grow by fits and starts as an ever-increasing menace to the idea of civilization – and the sooner history identifies the nature of that threat the better. Or, through some cataclysm in the future it will swell in numbers to obliterate in significance any nation of the living. In that case it will be the final phenomenon of our history. There are no other possibilities.”
Gil Elliot, The Twentieth Century Book of the Dead
