    The Dead of 2022

    I do not know how everyone else decides who Enters their Shadow Lists, but I have a list of, I suppose subs, that each year take the place of any hits from my list. Any of these "subs" that die within the year go to my own personal "List of the Missed". After June hailed about 6 folk of about 700 (and counting), they now all seem to be dying in very quick succession. First Goram, then Shvartsman, now Brook. I am entirely aware that 700+ are never going to all make my list, but some I just do not want to miss. Edit: Majumdar now also. Very similar to the beginning of December 2021, where at least one person who qualified for my List of the Missed died every day for over a week.

    Class of 1920

    Thank Goodness for reading the comments before voting. After that revelation, I have voted Ferencz, but I think it shall be close between him and Manolić. Angell died in May also, as mentioned elsewhere.

    I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Lygia Fagundes Telles was born in 1918. Whether this is an exception to the above rule I do not know, as I believe Fagundes Telles was stated to have been born in 1923 until her death when her actual age was revealed, but I have been confused by this for a while now. Apologies and thank you for your time.

    Ideas and possibilities for 2023

    I do not know whether he has already been suggested, but I think Sir Michael A. Epstein meets the famousness criteria, and he turns 102 next May.

    I have conducted some research, and asked around elsewhere, and it seems that Roberts died in 2019 according to Britmovie. https://www.britmovie.co.uk/forum/cinema/obituaries/81434-henry-roberts

    Does anyone know whether Henry Roberts (IMDB) is still alive? I am sceptical, but there is always that chance...
