This book is a wonderfully truthful account of what happens to bodies after death. The author gives the reader an unflinching view of the funeral business, touching on burials, cremation, embalming, etc. A great read!

If you enjoy morbidity and have a natural curiosity for what happens after we die, then you'll love this book. It's a very easy to read, interesting, sometimes humorous book of explanations, anecdotes and observations of all things regarding death. It's well written and although it is graphic, it's not unbearable to read. On the contrary, I found it quite fascinating and finished it in 2 days. Very interesting!
