I love how informative Doughty’s books are. This was a great listen as she is a fantastic narrator. Doughty is always respectful and never criticises or mocks any customs or grieving loved ones. I would never have known about many of these death practices if not for this book. It was nice to see how far things have come since it was published, since recomposition is now legalised. I completely agree with Doughty’s stance that family should be more involved in death care and allowed to grieve fearlessly.
