Day of the Dead : Tales of Death and Dying, to Disturb, Perturb and Delight

Let's talk about Death. After all, it's the one thing we all have in common. Eventually. Let's explore it, cry about it, tremble at it, laugh at it. Then let's write stories about Death... Twenty authors have done exactly that, giving you twenty-eight tales about the one subject no-one wants to talk about, but everyone knows will one day come to them. Whether it's a puzzling pronouncement about how to handle humans in another world, a story of a man who does not know he is dead, the true story of saying goodbye to Dad, or making lipsmacking use of a departed friend, this collection explores Death in its many different guises, offering up twenty-eight brilliant takes on mortality, from the spine-tingling, scary and screwy to the strange, touching and poignant. Often wry, sometimes creepy, always surprising, the stories in this book were drawn through the massive pool of talent connected with Portsmouth Writers' Hub, and boasts internationally-published authors as well as talented newcomers to the printed page. The authors of the Day of the Dead invite you to join their celebration of all things mortal. Enjoy...
