| Résumé : |
Death was never popular. The last thing most people want to talk about is death. But it’s there, always there, waiting. Waiting to claim parent, child, husband, wife, lover, friend—and me. I will die. Accident or cancer or bullet or bomb: death has many doors. But what is on the other side? Can we know?
This book answers questions about death. It does not seek to comfort, but to present facts . . . some of them chilling. The author does not stop with cold information about death, however. He also answers the centuries-old question, "If a man dies, shall he live again?” A fabric of hope is woven into this book, with the reasons for that hope. Joseph Bayly has seen three of his sons die. Those deaths explain his decision to write on this subject. They are in the background of all he says. |
