How would you interpret ‘a nation of the interred’ here?
When first I made this drive, the forests were leafless. I told Mrs. Brown about it. Father unexpectedly dead, and then this endless passage into a barren wilderness. I thought I had come to a nation of the interred.
How would you interpret ‘a nation of the interred’ in the last sentence?
Does it mean an area buried with dead people?
Thanks!
