Even is a nurse reluctant to open up to anyone in his life until he works as an assistant to those who are dying. When he is confronted by his own mother's disintegration, it is interesting to see his emotions become exposed. This book will make you question your own views on mortality, life and the legality surrounding assisted dying. A must-read from an Aussie talent!
