yeah...that IS interesting :). I remember feeling that whole scene had an
eerie and humorous feel to it on my first read :). Off the top of my head,
the little girl was probably expressing her curiousity about Seymour
through her doll, but you have to wonder what Seymour thought about it both
at the time and right before his suicide.
I think the stories represent the feelings/thoughts of a person who has
lost a loved one to suicide better than they represent the suicidal's
thoughts. And I think they're more realistic in that way -- our own
feelings and pieces of the past are all we're ever really left with.
