The Funeral Cryer

The Funeral Cryer long ago accepted the mundane realities of her life: avoided by fellow villagers because of the stigma attached to her job as a professional mourner and under-appreciated by The Husband, whose fecklessness has pushed the couple close to the brink of break-up. But just when things couldn't be bleaker, The Funeral Cryer takes a leap of faith - and in so doing things start to take a surprising turn for the better. Dark, moving and wry, The Funeral Cryer. is both an illuminating depiction of a 'left behind' society - and proof that it's never too late to change your life.
