A day in the life of Carla Valentine - curator, pathology
technician and 'death professional' - is not your average day. She
spent ten years training and working as an Anatomical Pathology
Technologist: where the mortuary slab was her desk, and that day's
corpses her task list. Past Mortems tells Carla's stories of those
years, as well as investigating the body alongside our attitudes
towards death - shedding light on what the living can learn from
dead and the toll the work can take on the living souls who carry
it out. Fascinating and insightful, Past Mortems reveals the truth
about what happens when the mortuary doors swing shut or the lid of
the coffin closes ...
