It took a circus-like trial of Mumler on fraud charges to expose a fault line of doubt and manipulation.

They believed they would live forever.

A strange feeling crops up, of entering into another life. My parents are far, far away from me now. I don’t even know what they’re like, they’re that far away. My memory can no ...
