When advertising maverick Farren Mortimer sets up
AMOLAD to bring the funeral business into the 21st
century his ideas capture the public's attention as he
cashes in on the new zeitgeist of conspicuous public
mourning. Appointed as the government's 'bereavement
czar' it looks as if Mortimer can't put a foot wrong as
he single-handedly puts the 'fun' into funerals. But
commercialising death isn't without its problems; not
everybody gives 'Mr Eulogy' and his slick marketing
techniques their blessing. But who wants to bury
Mortimer the most? Is it the anarchist graffiti street
artist who has made AMOLAD a particular target for his
ire? The self-seeking road safety campaigner with
designs on Mortimer as well as his money? The
award-seeking journalist who smells a BAFTA? Or someone
much closer to home? As the government's inaugural
'People's Remembrance Day' bank holiday date approaches,
will it be redemption or requiem for Mortimer? A Matter
of Life and Death is an intelligent, humorous and
fast-moving exploration of values and motives in today's
reality TV age: society's 'mourning sickness', the power
of marketing, media cynicism, anonymity as fame and the
influence of Twitter. A Matter of Life and Death, where
each chapter is headed with a song that could be played
at a funeral, will appeal to adult fiction readers and
fans of satire and black comedy - it picks up where
Evelyn Waugh's The Loved One left off.
