Smell of Death The smell of death isn't the smell of rotting corpses. It isn't dead putrid flesh decaying away somewhere damp and cold. The smell of death is what greets me when I put the key into the lock of my door to open it, and what follows me all the way up the stairs.The smell of death comes from lillies that have lined up, multiplied, outside the door of the house in which my neighbour died.
