An honest and sincere look at the funeral industry, how we grieve, and how we view death. This book is part memoir of Caitlin Doughty and her early days working in a crematorium and part reflection of how America treats death as a whole. It gets graphic at times but not for a scare. She's honest with herself and the world of the funeral business that she is involved with. Overall a great book for those comfortable with death and those who are not.
