Excerpt: 
Minka's gift was to see how others would die. "Consumption," she would say to herself while walking through Budapesht's Jewish Quarter. "Accident. Consumption. War. War. Heart. Consumption." Her only comfort was that her own reflection remained free of any sign of how she would meet her end.
