Skull after painted or bejeweled skullrelays a story that's as much about life asit is about death. . . . There's somethingintangible here--how 'memento mori,'literally meaning 'remember that you willdie,' isn't always a looming threat, andtangible human remains can evoke loveand respect for life, Memento Mori is led by the visuals: spellbinding images of decorated skulls, elaborate burials, and other death-related customs from around the world.

Synopsis
A macabre, spectacular, and thought-provoking survey of death in life, this book collects the many ways human remains are used in decorative, commemorative, and devotional contexts around the world today. This compact edition of Memento Mori takes the reader on a ghoulish but beautiful tour of some of the world's more unusual sacred sites and traditions, in which human remains are displayed for the benefit of the living. From burial caves in Indonesia festooned with bones to skulls smoking cigarettes, wearing beanie hats and sunglasses, and decorated with garlands of flowers in South America, author Paul Koudounaris ventures beyond the grave to find messages of hope and salvation. His glorious color photographs and insightful commentaries reveal that in many places, the realms of the living and the dead are nowhere near so distinct as contemporary Western society would have us believe., The astonishing story of howthe dead live on via memorialsacross the globe, fromEthiopia and Nepal toCambodia and Rwanda, toldthrough arresting images andcaptivating narration., A macabre, spectacular and thought-provoking survey of human remains used in decorative, commemorative or devotional contexts across the world today, from the author of Heavenly Bodies and The Empire of Death .

    Shipping on battery was fast. Packaging was adequate. Battery came as described, although it was shot. Couldn't beat the value for a factory battery. It was a $20 gamble, but I had to see for myself. Thanks just the same. Seller is highly recommended and I would do repeat business.

    Could not be happier! The book I ordered is in beautiful condition, the seller almost immediately reached out to me after the purchase and insured me it would be on its way promptly. And it got here even faster than I thought it would. They took exceptional care of the packaging, it was exactly as described, if not better and a more than fair price for the value.
