About The Pallbearers Club

In the late 1980s, awkward teenager Art Barbara starts a volunteer club for poorly attended funerals. A charismatic girl joins with her Polaroid camera and an unsettling fascination with New England death folklore, and decades later Art’s memoir of their friendship begins to blur memory, fiction, and the supernatural.
