...victims, age one to 82, died during or soon after assaults with a variety of weapons, including a cane, a coat hanger, a belt, an electric cord and a shoe. Yet the physical injuries they suffered should not have killed them. Then, what did? The disparate group was culled by Pathologists Marilyn Cebelin and Charles Hirsch from a list of 497 assault cases that occurred in Cleveland between 1950 and 1979. After reviewing autopsy and police reports, tissue slides and hospital charts, the doctors report in Human Pathology that eleven of the 15 people had lesions in the heart similar...

Peter Sellars is no actor. Full of noise--moans, sighs, barks, wimpers, heavy breath--his Lear is pitiable, not tragic. Like the monstrous fur coat that drapes his frail frame for much of the evening, the role of Lear dwarfs Sellars. Rather than confront the character, Sellars flops to his knees, letting his words drool in an endless, barely audible stream. His tortured soul is senile...
