Smoke Gets in Your Eyes & other lessons from the crematory by Caitlin Doughty
Smoke Gets in Your Eyes & other lessons from the crematory is a collection of personal stories and lessons learned by Caitlin Doughty, a current mortician, writing about her time as a crematory operator in California. It sounds pretty morbid, and at times it is, but it’s also entertaining, funny at times, and refreshingly honest. I learned a lot about the death industry and what happens behind the curtains. I’m sure I’m not the only one to wonder.
