IT TOLLS FOR THEE by Tom Morton

by: Tom Morton

This is a highly unusual and important book. It narrates how Tom Morton’s close encounter with death led him on a fascinating journey into the world of the dead and eventually to becoming the only independent funeral celebrant on the remote Shetland islands. Tom speaks about his discovery of the importance of ritual, humour, and the empowering act of finding words for something beyond language itself. This is also a very practical guide on how to prepare and plan funerals for yourself and your loved ones. It suggests how we can mourn together in a way that feels appropriate to the personality and beliefs of the one who has passed on. Ultimately, this is a guide to celebrating and reclaiming the end of life which enables us to cultivate a healthy attitude to our own eventual demise.
