"I grew up overlooking a beautiful valley through which a small river ran. But at one end of the valley, the river changed. The water became slow and black, trees overhung it and it widened into a stagnant, flooded wood. The trees were all dead. It was silent apart from the occasional call from a bird. One could not see across it. It was an eerie, chilling place."
A description of the river Styx from Dante's Inferno.

The title of this show comes from the Odyssey. In Book XI, Odysseus crosses that same river to the underworld and encounters a dead colleague. He asks: "How art thou come to this dark shore?" Homer describes the Styx as wide, fast flowing, and dangerous. It might be The English Channel.
