In Medias Res — • Plot/Summary: In Medias Res is about a man who has died and finds himself facing God on a desolate, heavenly beach near the Gate of Heaven. On the other side of the beach, across from the Gate, is a burning house where Satan takes sinful people to Hell. The man is told he has made a mistake and should have reported to the burning house, whereupon the man begs forgiveness for his sins and tries to strike a deal with God. Satan covertly observes the man, deciding to tempt him to take his place in Hell. This exchange would allow Satan to find his own unique audience with God in the form of a written poem Satan calls IN MEDIAS RES.
