"I hope the adventures in this book inspire you to explore a cemetery. It’s good
for the cemetery—and I promise it will be good for you." This is how Loren Rhoads welcomes readers to indulge in her latest cemetery book, 'Death's Garden Revisited: Personal Relationships with Cemeteries'. Loren, who is the editor, says the book is a "collection of over two dozen essays and more than two hundred photographs
involving twenty-seven contributors, ranging from spoken word diva Lydia Lunch
and artist/poet Jane Handel to ceramics artist Mary Jo Bole. The contributors
included writers for the LA Weekly, zinesters, underground musicians, and high
school girls." Loren, who is also the author of '199 Cemeteries to See Before You Die' and 'Wish You Were Here: Adventures in Cemetery Travel', joins Jennie and Dianne in a delightful discussion about the book and her relationship with those who contributed to it, and how her own relationship with cemeteries began and her Ordinary Extraordinary career as a writer of not only books about cemeteries, but also fiction in the realms of horror, fantasy and sci-fi.
