Description

Death has a 100 per cent success rate. We can't escape its inevitability nor can we deny its existence. So, when someone close to us dies or we are confronted by our own mortality, why are we utterly unprepared?

In Do Death, Amanda Blainey seeks to transform our lives through our relationship with death. By inviting us to accept death as a natural part of life, she encourages us to think about what really matters - and live more consciously. With uplifting wisdom from leaders and visionaries, Do Death will:

  • Help us rediscover the power of human connection
  • Inspire us to talk about death more openly
  • Offer sage advice on navigating grief, and talking to children
  • Empower us to be better prepared, practically and emotionally
Death can be our greatest teacher. This book is a manual for living, at any stage in life.

Reviews

"A tiny gem crammed with wisdom and kindness." - Kathryn Mannix, author of With the End in Mind

"A book we should all read - must read. It should be set as a GCSE text. Clear, concise, practical and kind. For the person facing, and those helping, this moment of life that we will all confront. Beautiful work." - Greg Wise
