The Pallbearers Club By Paul Tremblay – July 5, 2022
Barbara’s art was so uncool. He created an extracurricular club for volunteer pallbearers at sparsely attended funerals when he was a seventeen-year-old high school loner who liked to hair metal and had to wear a gigantic back brace at night due to his scoliosis. He also enjoyed listening to hair metal. The Pallbearers Club, however, was regarded to be hip by his new companion. She also took her Polaroid camera so she could take images of the dead.
The same might be said about her obsession with a legendary piece of New England folklore involving digging up the dead. Art attempts to make sense of everything by publishing The Pallbearers Club: A Memoir decades later. But for some reason, this friend got a hold of the text, and, well, she doesn’t like it. She is currently making cuts. The Pallbearers Club is an absorbing, dramatic depiction of a peculiar and unsettling connection that skillfully blurs the boundaries between fiction and recollection, the supernatural and the ordinary.
