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).

死,然後成為安靜的分子,構成晨間霧靄、暖陽裏的灰塵。這不是對死亡的懲罰,而是對過得很好的一生的奬賞。

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

人生是一场倒计时,从我出生的那一刻起,我就离死亡越来越近。 早就知道这本书的存在,正处于迷茫时期的我对这个主题异常感兴趣。首先,本书描述了关于殡葬业的各种内幕,这是我不可能会有所涉及的行业,所以本书可以让我的认知有更大的宽度。其次,我从十岁起就被死亡这个话题...

生命短暂又脆弱 有些人离开之后就再也不会回来,任你哭天抹泪,那种无力感,像黑夜要将你吞没。 生命有蓬勃生机的春天,也有落地腐烂的寒冬。死亡带走了一切,可有一样东西永远也带不走,那就是流淌在我们心中的爱。 分别是,知道会重聚,所以我们都在原地等待。 永别却是,很...

文/夏丽柠 海德格尔说:当你无限接近死亡,才能体会生的意义。我们恐怕没有那么多机会接近死亡。不过,有这么位美国姑娘就整日与死亡为武,并将切身体会写成了《烟雾弥漫你的眼》。在书里她谈笑风生,说起死来就像我们谈论生。显然,这是一本奇葩作者写的奇葩书。 凯特林•...

2020年第一天读完的年度地一本书居然是讲告别的,这个开始我是没想到了٩( °༥° )و ₎₎ 随着年龄数字的不断叠加,儿时从电视机里、从书本里认识的人不断的离世,甚至周边的朋友也已经有因为意外、病痛提早告别的了。我不惧怕自己的死亡,我害怕我身边的人随着时...

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...
