Help me with this pragraph please, I am reading the novel <pride and prejudice and zombie>.
But no sooner had she grabbed the handle of her weapon than a chorus of screams filled the
assembly hall, immediately joined by the shattering of window panes. Unmentionables poured in,
their movements clumsy yet swift; their burial clothing in a range of untidiness. Some wore gowns
so tattered as to render them scandalous; other wore suits so filthy that one would assume they
were assembled from little more than dirt and dried blood. Their flesh was in varying degrees of
putrefaction; the freshly stricken were slightly green and pliant, whereas the longer dead were
grey and brittle-their eyes and tongues long since turned to dust, and their lips pulled back into
everlasting skeletal smiles.

Hi maggiie - can you be more specific about the type of help you need. This is a description of the 'unmentionables' which I presume are the 'zombies' from the title of the book. If you know what zombies are, you shouldn't have too much difficulty with the description here.
