Caitlin Doughty is trying to change America's death industry, arguing that our distance from the whole process doesn't allow us to accept or grieve the loss. In this book, she does this by writing about death practices in places around the world, showing that our way is not the only way (and that what might seem macabre is potentially healing).

I will read anything she writes. I'm on board for her central argument, her humor, and her writing style,. This was a world tour of an issue I don't think much about, but find fascinating once we get started.

I always enjoy Caitlin Doughty’s content, but find her writing style a bit unpolished and conversational. That said, the work she does is important, and she approaches her subject with respect and self awareness.
