High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! "Pafko at the Wall", subtitled "The Shot Heard Round the World", was originally published as a folio in the October 1992 issue of Harper`s Magazine. It was later (1997) incorporated as the prologue in Don DeLillo`s magnum opus novel, Underworld, with minor changes from the original version, such as a new opening line. In 2001, "Pafko" was re-released as a novella, by Scribner (this is the same version as printed in Underworld). In Underworld this section is titled "The Triumph of Death", in reference to the painting by Pieter Brueghel the Elder.
