About the Book

"Bury My Heart in Bermondsey" captures more of the magic that made "Don't Drop the Coffin "such a hit. So much more than just a book about funerals, Barry writes about human passion and compassion, tragedy and comedy, the natural and the supernatural. All this and more is part of the daily routine for Barry and his small but charismatic historic family firm of funeral directors based in Bermondsey, South London. This book is Barry's eye-opening account of the astonishing variety of work his firm undertakes, including the repatriation of bodies from the World Trade Center and the Iraq War, the typical "cockney funeral," and the horrors of the "night shift."
