Reviews
"This is an extraordinary and important book, both vitally topical and essentially timeless." - Stuart Maconie "At the beginning, I'm happy to be drawn gently in, by about half way through, I'm starting to realise that, not only is this entertaining, but it's important, and by the end I know it's vital." - Tim Hayward

Synopsis
A funeral celebrant's story about how celebrating death, and creating personalised space for grief, can enrich lives and give meaning to death. After a close encounter with death, Tom Morton realised he needed a change of pace and perspective. He decided to become the only independent funeral celebrant on the remote Shetland Islands, an unusual new profession that would lead him on an extraordinary journey into the world of the dead. In a vivid narrative that reveals the fascinating realm of the unspoken - from extraordinary undertakers and death caf s, to pilgrimages and taboos - Tom quickly learns that death and speaking for the dead requires you to think on your feet and often take a magpie approach to faith and philosophy. From Humanism to hymns, Theravada Buddhism to Star Wars theology, he discovers the importance of ritual, humour, and the empowering act of trying to find words for something beyond language itself. This is an accessible and thought-provoking guide to celebrating mortality. When grief must be an inevitable part of life, Tom shows how we can mourn together in a way that feels appropriate to the life of the one who has passed on, and ultimately cultivate a healthy attitude to our own eventual demise., A funeral celebrant's story about how celebrating death, and creating personalised space for grief, can enrich lives and give meaning to death.

- y***t (33)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaIn the first part, he talks about his brushes with death because of heart problems. The 2nd part is about leading funerals which helps one think about that part of life that will come to all of us sooner or later. This is the reason I wanted to read the book. I will be reading it again with sticky tabs for the parts I want to keep in mind as I plan for my demise. I want everything ready for the time when it arrives. The book was in great shape. It is well worth the cost. Go for it for sure!
- 6***6 (72)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaThis delivery was earliest date! Condition, value, quality - all as described. (My mistake was not requiring the publishing date to be 1958. This was 1977.) This IS a Viking Portable Library copy of Dante's Divine Comedy in English, translated by Laurence Binyon, but it is with a cover DIFFERENT from what was shown. The tracking number was listed as from "UPS", but should have been listed as from "USPS." Contact with this seller alleviated tracking issues. I recommend this seller! Thank you!
- p***a (186)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaI purchased two books from the same seller; both were accurately advertised in product write ups. Seller responded promptly and securely packaged both books for swift arrival. I am very happy with my purchase and highly recommend this seller.
