From Here to Eternity: Traveling the World to Find the Good Death by Caitlin Doughty

5.0

Excellent read. As someone who doesn't actively despair the subject of death and dying, this book was recommended to me by a dear friend and it did not disappoint. Talks about various funeral rituals and practices involving the dead throughout the world and much like The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying did for me, this put me more at ease with coming to terms with mortality. But, also was something of a downer due to the American model of funeral practices and how driven by Capital it is.
