I couldn't imagine going to my grave without reading this book Why, I would just die --Marla Spooner of Pontiac, Michigan. (OK, we made that up.) Salem, Massachusetts-based author M.J. Szimanski weighs in on the denial associated with one's own death and digs up a few skeletons buried deep within our subconscious. Szimanski tackles a body bag full of death-related topics ranging from suicide to The Funeral Show to near-death experiences with unusual observations, humor and an afterlife's worth of alliterations. You many not be any more open to facing death after reading Bereaveability, but you should audibly snort at some of the reasons people, and maybe you, may use to avoid thinking about it.
