This is how we die

What happens to your body when you die? What do you feel - sadness, pain? And then, when your heartbeat has ceased? What happens to your corpse until you are buried? How will people mourn you? Dying, death, and grief are inevitable for each of us. Yet, we know very little about it. Those who ask these questions approach a taboo - but also a gap in knowledge. Roland Schulz meticulously and poignantly describes what we experience during our final days and hours. He traces the journey of the body from the autopsy to the burial and ultimately asks what dying and death mean for those who are left behind. How do we mourn - and how can we continue to live? In his brutally honest yet brilliant text, Schulz provides answers to the deepest questions of life.
