strange story

[ksmith]

A man commits suicide. He's an organ donor, and the man who gets his heart winds up marrying his (the suicide's) widow. Then some time later, he commits suicide himself.


It's the sort of tale an editor might ask you to rethink because it's too pat.

That's bizarre beyond belief. Fortunately (or something), reality doesn't have to be believable. Only fiction carries that onus... :)

Because in fiction, motivations need to make sense. In real life--hah!
