"The Handsomest Drowned Man in the World " by Gabriel Garcia
The Handsomest man in the World is about a man that appears near the sea. Two kids are playing near the sean and they see something and they go check what it is. Its a dead man. hen the word is spread some man came to take him to the nearest house. They are all amazed by him, specially the woman. They see that he is the most handsome and muscular man they have ever seen around. At some point the man get jealous and want to drown him again. Then they feel bad and prepare him the greatest funeral.
The kind of funeral that I want for me when I die is a happy funeral. I want my family and freinds to be happy. I want this because when I die is because it's Gods will. I've never been in a funeral, I get depressed, but It all happends for a reason. I don't think its similar to how I want my funeral to be, but I hope that they would think similar to how I do. What this story reveals to me about the Latin American's attitudes toward death is that when they do funerals its very important on how they do it and what they want for their dead people.
