Joyce's Epiphany "The Dead" from Dubliners WOW!!. Beautiful

From The Writer's Almanac with Garrison Keillor, for Monday Jan. 6, 2014:


Joyce's Dubliners ends with a story set at a party for the Feast of the Epiphany, "The Dead," and that story ends: "His soul swooned slowly as he heard the snow falling faintly through the universe and faintly falling, like the descent of their last end, upon all the living and the dead."
