Description
Behind the mortuary doors, a world of death and discovery awaits. Carla Valentine's memoir reveals the truth about life as an Anatomical Pathology Technologist, where corpses became her task list and the mortuary slab was her desk.
This fascinating portrait sheds light on what happens when the mortuary doors swing shut or the lid of the coffin closes, exploring the body and our attitudes towards death. With visceral attention to physical and emotional detail, Valentine shares her stories from ten years of training and working in this unique field.
