When Miriam Weinstein's good friend died unexpectedly, and other losses followed close behind, it led to a year of introspection and black outfits. All Set For Black, Thanks ditches the sanctimony to give us the help, and the laughs, that we actually need in times of mourning and grief. She explores such topics as how we keep our dead with us even as we learn to let them go; why we should not bring casseroles; how to write the Best Eulogy Ever. Part memoir, part how-to, this book will help you get through the rough bargain of human existence: none of us gets out of here alive, but we live as if the lives of our loved ones had no end.

Most of the essays are autobiographical, acknowledging how closely we remain involved with people who died years ago. The title sets the tone for the whole book. Recognizing that funny can coexist with sadness, the essays have an insouciant tone that make them wonderfully readable. ( )
