Do you remember the name of that book? Sounds like something I'd like.
Sadly, no. I remember the cover was black and white, showing a picture of like an open jacket with no person in it. I picked it up off the shelf in the library for that reason, contrary to the saying about books and covers.
If I find it, I'll post
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Brief_History_of_the_Dead ?
Oh! That was it. Good search check.
Kind of a downer book, but memorable
