Welcome to Death Faire: Love, Loss and Healing in a Small Southern Town is a soulful collection of stories, poems, and images born from a small Southern town’s bold embrace of life, death, and everything in between. What began as a community gathering transformed by grief has grown into a movement that honors death as part of living fully.
