Inhabiting the Ruins: Abandoned Places and Forgotten Souls are the Cornerstones of Great Stories

<p>This week in the Cold, we talk about the artist Mirna Pavlovic&#39;s obsession with grand, abandoned places and how her vision corresponds with a writer&#39;s (at least this writer&#39;s) exploration of damaged characters plagued by broken dreams, violence, and lost love.
