You are here: Home / Archive / Feature Stories / Discovering Death: A Mortician’s Guide To Life
Published: October 13, 2019 by VPR Producer

What happens if you pass away on an airplane or in outer space? Why do bugs only eat certain parts of your body? These are some of the questions Caitlin Doughty answers everyday and in her new book Will My Cat Eat My Eyeballs? Viewpoints spoke with Doughty about why discussing death is still such a taboo topic in the U.S. and how our burial and funeral practices vary widely from other cultures.
