About
In his mid-forties, aid worker Simon Boas was diagnosed with advanced, incurable throat cancer. Determined to live — and to die — on his own terms, he reflects on life, mortality, and what it means to exist fully with purpose. He offers lessons for all of us on how to approach life — and the end of life — with honesty, humour and humanity.
“In this candid collection … Boas’s solid if somewhat predictable advice to seize the day is enriched by his wry humor and moments of genuine insight.” — Publishers Weekly“Simon Boas was a gifted storyteller with a rare ability to find humor and humanity in life’s most profound moments. … A Beginner’s Guide to Dying showcases his wit, warmth and wisdom.” — Hospice Nurse Julie McFadden, author of Nothing to Fear
