I always enjoy a book reflecting on death and dying, and this one does it beautifully. Maybe a little too feel-good for my tastes though, and the described shunning of death workers weirded me out a little as someone who works a lot with death myself without ever really seeing that attitude (though I'm willing to chalk it up to cultural differences).
