Death Care in Fiction
These books either feature death care or have it as an element of the story in a way that I or others found moving - always looking for recommendations!

I think Mammoths at the Gates by Nghi Vo might fit?
I'll add it! Thank you!
I hope itās appropriate! I didnāt immediately think of it when I saw your other post because the death care is much more in the context of mourning/grieving than it is in Piranesi, but the rituals and rites are very much at the center of the story, I think.
Iām super intrigued by it and I think this list is for the death care anyone in this community finds moving - that way thereās a big range of experiences around death care and everyone can find something that speaks to them ā„ļø
