Sympathy for the Mummy: Halloween Fiction (?)



Lynda Barry has a short story at Salon.com for Halloween:

"It’s the mid-1800s, and a Croatian guy goes to Egypt on vacation and buys a mummy as a souvenir. So you can already tell what kind of guy he is. The mummy turns out to be wrapped in strips made from a book handwritten on linen in Etruscan, a language that died out 2,000 years ago ..."

Read the full story here.
