Is keeeping a dead body in your house weird? To many people , hacing a dead body in your house in insane. But to the people in the village in "The Story of the Most Handsomest Drowned Man" it was normal. In the story, the people in the village find a dead body and they take care of him like he is one of their own. The people started caring for the man so much that they stopped focusing on theirselves. They cleaned cared for the body day and night, ignoring their own needs to help the man. They even thought of a name for the dead man. I think that the people in the village should have stopped worrying about someone else and their past and start focusing on their future.
I did not see why the people in the village thought so highly of the dead man. I did not know if he was just a regular man or if he had supernatural qualities. I think the people in the village felt bad for the man because he was so big. They probably thought the man had a tough life so they thought that caring for him made him hapy in his afterlife, but that is my opinion. The man being brought to the village also inspired the people to do tasks that the man would do around the village. So they basically started doing things that they thought were impossinble. Even though the villagers were inspired by the man, I still think the villagers should have not spent so much time with the dead man, and they should have worried about their own lives.
