"Don't come to me with conclusions!"

Details

Dear Book Rafters,

the poet-engineer Àlvaro de Campos (one of Fernando Pessoa's heteronyms) wrote in a poem "Don't come to me with conclusions! Death is the only conclusion." But I love conclusions in art, especially book conclusions. It's so nice the feeling of getting to the end of a great novel and reading a perfect conclusion, don't you agree?

What were the most memorable or unforgettable closing lines of a novel, short story or poem that you read? What made them so special for you?

So, please, DO COME WITH CONCLUSIONS! Join us for a literary chat at Bookshop Bivar and bring a quote (closing lines) from one of your favourite novel, short story or poem!

NOTE:

Suggested donation to cover the expenses of this meetup group: 3 Euros.
