When I was Dead

Vincent O'Sullivan (1868-1940) was born in New York, son of an Irish-American family, and moved to London as a child. As a young man, he quickly established a reputation as a master of horror and decadent macabre stories. He was a close friend of Oscar Wilde, Aubrey Beardsley and other leaders of the aesthetic movement.

"When I Was Dead" is the macabre story of a man who gradually realises he has died unexpectedly...and resists vigorously this awful turn of events.
