Damage THE END
It is very unfortunate that Martyn passed away in the end. I hate the fact that the narrator was always concerned about Anna's whereabouts. It didn't help that Ingrid left him, and Sally now doesn't know what love is. His family is torn and his relationship with Anna gone forever. It wasn't a surprise that he was left alone and in misery. He has now acquired whatever drama his life was missing. This was the cherry on top, and he still didn't learn until Anna was on the hands of another. He mentioned dying twice. I feel yes his previous life with Ingrid had died as he became more involved into Anna, and now his current life full of dramatics is over due to the death of his son. I do not agree with Ingrid, the narrator dying would have been too easy for him, he needs to live with the pain of what he has done, and deal with the guilt and selfish acts of his nature.

I agree totally that he should suffer by living with the guilt of his actions. Sadly, I feel like the guilt was instant and went away after the narrator realized Anna was gone. He missed Anna more than his own son and I feel the longing for her made him forget about the pain of losing Martyn. Its sad to know that had he had went about the situation differently none of these events would have occurred. The narrator was selfish and irrational with his actions and because of them so many people suffered.
