圖書描述

A young mortician goes behind the scenes, unafraid of the gruesome (and fascinating) details of her curious profession.

Most people want to avoid thinking about death, but Caitlin Doughty—a twenty-something with a degree in medieval history and a flair for the macabre—took a job at a crematory, turning morbid curiosity into her life’s work. Thrown into a profession of gallows humor and vivid characters (both living and very dead), Caitlin learned to navigate the secretive culture of those who care for the deceased.

Smoke Gets in Your Eyes tells an unusual coming-of-age story full of bizarre encounters and unforgettable scenes. Caring for dead bodies of every color, shape, and affliction, Caitlin soon becomes an intrepid explorer in the world of the dead. She describes how she swept ashes from the machines (and sometimes onto her clothes) and reveals the strange history of cremation and undertaking, marveling at bizarre and wonderful funeral practices from different cultures.

Her eye-opening, candid, and often hilarious story is like going on a journey with your bravest friend to the cemetery at midnight. She demystifies death, leading us behind the black curtain of her unique profession. And she answers questions you didn’t know you had: Can you catch a disease from a corpse? How many dead bodies can you fit in a Dodge van? What exactly does a flaming skull look like?

Honest and heartfelt, self-deprecating and ironic, Caitlin's engaging style makes this otherwise taboo topic both approachable and engrossing. Now a licensed mortician with an alternative funeral practice, Caitlin argues that our fear of dying warps our culture and society, and she calls for better ways of dealing with death (and our dead).

評分

4/5 In her 'morbidly insightful' debut, Doughty demystifies the undertaking industry and, through her research into jaw-dropping death rituals and galore charnel anecdotes, brings us face to face with death.This book has the explosive power to shift our current death-denial culture and lead us into the Danse Macabre with peace, joy and celebration

題材很好,寫的感覺一般啊,沒有作者yt視頻有意思

評分

Rather than denying the truth of death, it was a revelation to embrace it, however disgusting it might sometimes be.

評分

與其說它寫死亡教育,不如說是關於生命教育。死亡是生活中注定會發生的事情,但是現代人刻意將其掩蓋起來,變成充滿恐懼,不安以及焦慮的意外事件。這書有中譯本,我看英文原版覺得閱讀體驗非常好,筆觸靜謐深邃,文筆優美流暢。從現實到曆史到中世紀文化亞馬遜部落的儀式細密無縫地交織在一起。很抓人,又很觸動。

《爸爸去哪儿第三季》有一期备受争议的主题,就是“爸爸们”化上年老的皱纹妆,告诉孩子们有一天爸爸会变成这个容貌,还会死亡。很多观众认为,以这几个孩子的年龄,就教育“死亡课程”太过残忍。我一直觉得对生老病死的了解是一个随着年龄慢慢形成的自然过程,一般人也都...

我们经常和火葬场打交道,随着年龄的增长,几乎每年都要到火葬场去送别几位同事同学或者朋友的父母。可是我们却都不了解火葬场,也没机会去了解。如果不是去送葬,我们就是路过火葬场也会避之而去,那里实在是阴森恐怖。 可是手中的这本书,却是在讲述火葬场的故事。当...

哲学家塞內加说过:人生是通往死亡的一次旅行。但是我想没有几个人可以坦然面对这次旅行的终点,不论你是权倾天下如齐桓公,抑或富有四海如罗斯柴尔德,都无法保证自己的生前身后事是否体面从容,更别提生命意识消失以后的那种虚空了。所以人们习惯性逃避死亡、消灭衰老,而这...

老百姓有一句话“这日子,开心是过,不开心也是过,怎么都是一辈子。”初听来不过是一句朴实无华的家常话,可是仔细想想竟然蕴藏了人生的终极真相,那就是——人都是会死的。 我们的教育我们的人生观、世界观都是本能的逃避死亡的,凡是和死亡有关的,似乎都是避之不及,都是...
