- A fascinating look at the Day of the Dead - Mexico’s
version of All Souls’ Day - when Mexicans clean, decorate,
and maintain vigil over relatives’ graves.
- Dispels myths about the rituals, which have been misconstrued
as morbid or morose.
- Shows that, rather than feeding a national appetite for death,
the festival is in fact a powerful affirmation of life and
creativity.
- Beautifully illustrated with both black and white and colour photographs.
