A Life Among the Dead by David Mcgowan
Ireland's best known Funeral Director, and subject of the Award-winning Netflix documentary, The Funeral Director, shares lessons learned from a lifetime dealing with the dead.
A profoundly compassionate, educational reflection on death, and the rites we've developed to help us say goodbye and to support us in our griefMcGowan's wise elder words, so conversational in style, are like finding yourself in a cosy pub by the fire with an extraordinary community ritual leader, and getting the chance to talk to him for hours, about what only he knows. -- Adrienne Murphy, The Irish Times
