The Death Talker

Publisher: New Holland Publishers

Since the dawn of time, human beings have been curious about death. Most of us have little time in our busy lives to think about the things that are important to us. Often, it’s not until we have a personal experience that we give any serious thought to our own life and our mortality. 

The Death Talker offers a common sense approach to the issues we should all be thinking about so we can live and die well. The personal stories and practical information provide a sensitive guide for exploring the ‘stuff that matters’ to each of us and to help us have meaningful conversations with the people we love.
