Daniel Scott: A Good Funeral, Gebunden

Klappentext

The definitive compendium of the most striking, most sonorous and most memorable funeral addresses for notable public figures of recent times. A GOOD FUNERAL will give the reader a chance to revisit the achievements and sense the essence of some of the most storied figures of contemporary culture -- designer Vivienne Westwood, musicians Lee Scratch Perry and Dusty Springfield, actors and comedians such as Dame Barbara Windsor, Barry Humphries and Graham Chapman, politicians like Margaret Thatcher and Richard Nixon. And many more luminaries.

It gathers some of the most fascinating, witty, loving, appalling, ambiguous, maddening, moving and inspiring addresses ever given as a send-off to whatever comes next.
