Book excerpt: I Saw Myself Alive in a Coffin begins with a wish for death and ends with a hope for a life fully lived.In this collection of poetic musings on life and death, Quinn explores her personal relationship with death, or sometimes lack of: death as something that happens daily, death as a feeling, death as fascination, death as intangible, death as wish, death as an inevitability.Quinn's relationship with death mutates with the ebb and flow of her depression and rises to a peak as suicidal ideation. Here, she imagines confronting her own death and what it would be like to walk away with a second chance; to really live the single gift of life she's been given. Thus comes a respect for both life and death-one cannot exist without the other; one cannot truly live without accepting the inevitable.
