The Dead are Gods by Eirinie Carson is a deeply personal and poignant exploration of grief, Blackness, and recovery after the loss of a dear friend. Following an unexpected phone call in 2018, writer and model Eirinie sets out to make sense of her best friend's death, uncovering startling secrets about her life in the process.
As she navigates moments of intense grief, Eirinie finds power in pulling moments of joy from the depths of her emotion. Her portrayal of what love feels like after death is both timely and honest, offering a unique perspective on Black love and Black life. With a message that "the only way out is through", this striking memoir bursts with emotion and insight.
