Smoke Gets in Your Eyes

and Other Lessons From the Crematory
May 15, 2019Elybrarian rated this title 5 out of 5 stars
When I'm asked for book recommendations, I never hesitate to name "Smoke Gets in your Eyes" by Caitlin Doughty. I once took a class in college called "Death and Dying in the Western World" and this book perfectly sums up the topics that we covered and the somewhat peculiar ways in which Americans view death. Doughty delivers the ultimate trifecta of humor, history, and trade skills in the field of post-death practices. As others have said, this book is the very definition of morbidly funny.
