Now his body lies broken with his soul in some Russian woodshed they call a hospital. His gasps of agony going unheard. Rude, foreign voices attend him. No one in the world beyond remembers his words or seeks his face. The burly nurse plunges the catheter up into his bladder.

An atheist. A jesuit. A neoliberal. A masonic celebrity. A superfluous man.

In short, a Jungian.
