Death, the Last God | Free Book
A Modern Book of the Dead
Anne Geraghty was a clinical psychologist and psychotherapist when her
son, Tim Guest, author of My Life in Orange died suddenly. Her old
life ended. She went on a search for her lost son. Where was he? What
was he? Did he live on in some other realm? Or had he fallen into the
darkness of oblivion? Her search for Tim became an exploration into
the nature of death itself. We die as we have lived. Our lives are not
like those of a C12th Tibetan, a C15th Cardinal or a Zen monk; we
cannot, therefore, simply turn to old maps and myths of what happens
when we die. We need a new narrative of death that embraces our modern
understandings of our humanity and the workings of the universe. This
book is the story of a grieving mother looking for her dead son, an
investigation into death in our modern world, and an exploration of
our struggles to live well in the ever-present shadow of death. It is
not a book with answers; it is an invitation to look at death
differently. This book offers fresh and original ideas about death and
dying. And it will radically change your understanding of what death
is.
