Winner of the 2009 USA Best Books Award and the 2010 International
Book Award, The Art of Death Midwifery: An Introduction and
Beginner's Guide, by ordained interfaith minister Joellyn St.
Pierre, is a compelling and comprehensive manual for family,
clergy, hospice volunteers, or medical staff engaged in the field
of death and dying. In this poetic and powerful book, the author
reminds us that society has thrown a veil of mystery over the
process of death, thereby depriving the dying from the dignified
and fearless departure they so deserve. Based on the tenet that
death is neither the enemy nor a finite state, St. Pierre gives all
helpmates the necessary tools to become a death midwife. That is,
someone capable of acting as a spiritual guide as the dying
transition from this life into what awaits them after death. Unlike
many books on death and dying, this guide is leading-edge, based on
the author's long experience both in lay and clergy. It is a
sensitive and lyrical reminder that the dying deserve to feel
empowered as they leave this life.
