Asked by Hannah
I was wondering if someone could help me find information on the short story "Died and Gone to Vegas" by Tim Gautreaux. I read the story but didn't understand it to well. I was just wondering what the theme is. I tried to look it up but I cannot find any useful info.

While I'm looking for information, ask yourself this: What is the "secret message" the author wants you to get by the time you finished reading this story?
