The Handsomest Drowned Man in the World by Gabriel Garcia Marquez

The story about the Handomsest drowned man is about a man who washes up to the sea. He is found by children while they were playing. The children became curious and decided to play with the dead body. Later then men from the village take him back into town. The women clean him up and dress him. While doing so they begin to compare him to the men from their village and name his "Esteban." The men go to near by villages and see if they the dead body was from a family member, but it wasn't. Then the women decide to have a funeral for him.
