The book “From Death to Life” is unique. She talks about leaving earthly life from a Christian point of view and formulates the most terrible human question wisely and calmly: not “why” do we die, but “for what”? The authors - priests and theologians, hospice workers and volunteers - share their thoughts about life and death, personal memories and experiences. The book, based on materials from the Internet portal “Orthodoxy and the World,” is very light and achingly tender.
