There’s a new anthology with poignant and unique stories and poems about funerals and end-of-life rituals, entitled What Remains – The Many Ways We Say Goodbye. It includes two short prose pieces about my father’s death, and related family rituals.
“The Sound”, and “The Molecules of the Dead”. The book, edited by Sandi Gelles-Cole & Kenneth Salzmann, can be previewed and ordered here; the two stories can be accessed in the second link:
