Description
Hayley Campbell's thought-provoking book explores the complex relationship between death and society, delving into the lives of those who work with it every day. Through candid interviews with embalmers, a former death row executioner, mass fatality investigators, a bereavement midwife, and others, Campbell examines the impact of death on individuals and the world at large. By sharing the stories of those who confront death directly, she poses a profound question: does facing death change us, and are we missing something vital by letting it remain hidden?
