LIVING IS DYING How to Prepare for Death, Dying, and Beyond

With his rich vocal tone and flawless enunciation, Michael Imperioli delivers this expansive work of Buddhist teaching with grace and resonance with the author's message. His beautiful phrasing range and pitch patterns never overshadow the content, and the emotional depth of his delivery makes every detail in the audiobook powerful. The author, a Tibetan lama, filmmaker, and writer, surveys Eastern thinking about death to gently provoke listeners to think about how they live and how to approach the end of life. He sees death as the start of a transition to a different state of being, one that is unknown but need not be feared. The narrator's exceptional performance makes this audiobook an indispensable guide to living with more understanding, kindness, and equanimity. T.W.
