A day in the life of Carla Valentine - curator, pathology technician and 'death professional' - is not your average day. She spent 10 years training and working as an Anatomical Pathology Technologist: where the mortuary slab was her desk and that day's corpses her task list.

Past Mortems tells Carla's stories of those years and investigates the body alongside our attitudes towards death - shedding light on what the living can learn from the dead and the toll the work can take on the living souls who carry it out. Fascinating and insightful, Past Mortems reveals the truth about what happens when the mortuary doors swing shut or the lid of the coffin closes.

I started this book with an open mind as it seemed to have quite mixed reviews.
Unfortunately im going to have to side with the reviewers that didnt enjoy the narration.
I found it annoying with all the put on accents and just the general tone of it all.
The actual was.... ok..... but i felt talked down to at times.

Narrator was hard to listen to

Knowing Carla, my opinion may be slightly biased, but I would say this is a thoroughly interesting read. For the many of us who don't work in the death profession this book gives us an entertaining insight into a world we would otherwise never consider.

Very interesting read

I loved every second of this book. As someone who also has wanted to work with the dead it was a brilliant onsite into a world not a lot of people know about or want to.

Fascinating and entertaining
