Cold Cuts & Cigarettes

Funerals are never easy, and this one is particularly difficult. These community events are the reason why the narrator left home, escaping to the city in the hopes he could forget his fears and past traumas. But now that he's returned to the secretive small town, where neighbours help one another with even the most difficult tasks, he's struggling to fit in and to connect with those around him. Worst of all, he's struggling to make it through the day as he can't help but think of what is being done to prepare for the gruesome burial to come. Duration - 35m. Author - Stephanie Anne.
