This should give you a better idea if the book is for you.

Tuff call for me if it wins, as I can tell from the excerpts that it would be a roller coaster read between laughing and wincing.

I appreciate Roach's take on death/dying/cadavers, just would rather not consider the detailed handling of body parts.

Think I may go for the new biography of Wille Mays if Stiff wins! I will read the post-read posts though.
