Peter Munz died yesterday. What little I knew of him came mainly from a few cryptic lines in a biography of Karl Popper, but they were sufficiently interesting lines that I am preparing to write a play based on them. I had planned to send him an email this week, asking to interview him about his life, but I was unsure how best to introduce myself to somebody I wish to convert into a fictional character. Now I’m unsure how to feel about the death of somebody I didn’t know, but wanted to get to know.

I never met Professor Peter Munz. I found a personal article belonging to him. When I tried to find out how to contact him via google, I realised that he had died a month ago.
I don’t know how I feel. Whatever it is, it’s weird.
I spent the next hour or so reading up on his work and life. Amazing what death does to the living.
