“The Undertaker’s Tale”

Later this week, a previously unpublished story by Mark Twain entitled The Undertaker’s Tale will be released.

According to Andrew Gulli, the editor of The Strand Magazine in which the article will appear, “Twain uses his razor sharp wit to pen a tongue-in-cheek tale about the funeral industry.”
