All October long, we've been narrating some of our favourite Weird stories, and sharing them with you each Tuesday! For our final entry in this series, Wyatt reads Harlan Ellison's The Function of Dream Sleep. If, as we've said in an earlier episode, Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Pulse is a perfect depiction of depression, then this story is a similarly perfect depiction of grief. Enjoy!

Narrated by Wyatt Keusch, with music by David Paha.

This week we discuss Ben Wheatley’s 2013 period psychedelic trip, A Field In England.
