'I am a deceased writer not in the sense of one who has written and is now deceased, but in the sense of one who has died and is now writing'.

While the grave may have given Cubas the distance to examine his rather undistinguished life, it has certainly not dampened his sense of humour. Epitaph of a Small Winner is one of the wittiest self-portraits in literary history.
