    Graveyard The - A Short Story...

    At the end of our days we will most likely lie for eternity in the cemetery or graveyard.  Many of these, now wreathed in time, have a romance and overgrown beauty as nature keeps and shelters the dead.  These acres may be the final resting place for those who have passed but for those who visit peace may not be as easy to find.  Grief may still pull at the heart, memories continue to overwhelm, or, even those drawn simply by its history, may encounter different feelings or experiences once inside these cities of the dead.  
     
    For our varied and talented authors, a major theme, or indeed character of the stories in this volume is that very location, and how they weave it into their narratives is both fascinating, enlightening and a wonderfully distinct way of telling classic short stories.
