Remorse

A dead man tells his story from the waiting-halls of eternity. His friend on the bunk below, the Catholic, has other thoughts than him of what is ahead. What to hope for when there is no hope? What to live for in death? The Swedish magazine 'Opulens', where the story was originally published, presented the short-story: 'Jeremiah Karlsson has written an extremely original story, both tragic and humorous (...). It is a short-story that extends far into the domains of fantasy and magical realism.'

Jeremiah Björkman (born 1986) is a Swedish writer living in the province Småland in southern Sweden. He has published four novels and numerous short-stories.
