Title: Curious Indeed
Review: In "Stiff" Mary Roach achieves the delicate balance between the ghoulish macabre and the fate that awaits us all while never losing her sense of honest curiosity, reverence, and gallows humor throughout.This book was highly recommended to me and I was initially skeptical as to whether it was worthy of all of the high praise. I needn't have worried. The book is both educational and fun, yes fun. Of course I'd heard of body snatchers, but had no idea that they referred to themselves as 'resurrectionists'. Guess I know who Karl Rove was spinning for in the 18th Century, yes?I believe that anyone with an interest in life, death, and especially the genesis for so many tales of horror and the like should do themselves a favor and pick up a copy of this book, draw the curtains, pour a 'stiff' drink and turn the page. Oh, and you might want to light a candle and turn that bust of Poe toward the wall...at least for a day or two.
