| Annotation | A collection of personal interviews with people who have in some way confronted death: through work with the dying, experience of bereavement, terminal illness, or because their own age brings them close to the idea of death. Included are: Dame Cecily Saunders, founder of the hospice movement; Sir Isiah Berlin, the philosopher; Dr Anthony Storr, psychiatrist and author; two Buddhist Lamas; a couple who have made their own coffins and booked their own burial ground; and a prisoner serving a life sentence for murder. |
