I went to a library today and found that book just to see what could cause so much crying (I didn't have anything else to do today). Actually, I took a bus up to a nearby mountain town and found the book in the mountain town's library. (It got to 109 degrees here today, so I ran from the heat). Anyway, I found that book and I started reading the second interlude (I think it was called something like "Awakening".) It didn't seem too cry-worthy, and I looked at the table of contents and saw that there were actually two - two - two interludes in that one book. To be honest, I didn't even know that books could have interludes in them at all. Well, now I know that, and I know what was so sad also. The guy died just when he was so elated and relieved and full of anticipation that his niece was really coming to see him, and just before he actually saw her. It kind of reminds me of a line from a song I heard long ago: "We are but a moment's sunlight, shining in the grass." It actually has two interludes, Liz!
