Traveling the World to Find the Good Death
Sep 06, 2018AnnabelleLee27 rated this title 4 out of 5 stars
Doughty deftly explores how the avoidance of death and our current funerary practices have left us bereft and emotionally adrift when facing the death and care of a loved one. She explores funerary practices across the world and finds inspiration and encouragement for rethinking fundamental deathcare. The best part is that Doughty writes with humor, respect, and intelligence and I found her epilogue to be especially smart and moving. The result is an entertaining, thought-provoking, and worthwhile read.
