A radical revaluation of how contemporary society perceives death-and an argument for how it can make us happy.
Praise for Ray Robertson
"Robertson is a moral writer and a bitingly intelligent one, a man who writes with penetrating insight of what needs to be written about: beauty, truth and goodness."-Globe and Mail
"Sharp-tongued . . . as Robertson ponders family and home as well as 'what it means to love someone and to lose someone and to have to go on living anyway,' he presents an intriguing character whose very real troubles are offset by bright flashes of hope."-Publishers Weekly
"Clear-eyed . . . Robertson is no stranger to confronting unsavoury truths."-Steven Beattie
"Heartfelt, funny, rigorous, practical without ever being preachy . . . a book that feels like a friend."-Montreal Gazette
"Sly wit and keen observation . . . an exceptional novel by one of the country's finest literary voices."- National Post
