Life. Death. Whatever.

Hi!

 

We’re Anna Lyons, an end-of-life doula, and Louise Winter, a progressive funeral director, and together we’re the team behind Life. Death. Whatever. Our joint mission is to redesign the dialogue around death and dying, to open it up and to find new approaches to this important subject. We believe that death is a normal part of life and dying is part of living. Acknowledging and accepting that one day we will die is fundamental to living a full life.  It's as simple and as complicated as that!

 

We've curated a selection of books related to death and dying, life and living that we've found to be helpful.  Whether you've currently living with grief, facing the death of someone you love, getting your own affairs in order or simply wondering how to make the most of your life, we hope you'll find something for you here.

 

Death is going to happen to us all, and we believe how we handle this fact matters enormously.

P.S. Our first book, We All Know How This Ends, will be published by Bloomsbury in March 2021.
