“Here, Where Death Delights: A Literary Memoir” written by the author Mary Irene Jumbelic is a must read. This is the story of Mary Jumbelic. When she was thirteen-years-old, her father died of lung cancer while in surgery. After losing her father, Mary was left alone with her mother. She is the only child of her parents and was born twelve years after her parents’ marriage.
Mary worked different small jobs that paid little while growing up. Meanwhile, she held on to her dream to become a doctor. Once she realized that she could learn more about the human body by seeing it in the flesh, she started working in the morgue. It wasn’t easy to see the bodies of little ones. In 1987, the Deputy Chief at the Cook County Medical Examinerโs Office, told her to use as many senses as possible during an autopsy. By looking at the different bodies and especially the one that involved the heart, Mary was reminded of her own father’s death.
When Mary was pregnant with her first child, she learned about the parts of her mother’s life which she wasn’t aware of earlier. Read this book to learn more about her journey.
Mary has professionally devoted her life to death. I have learned a lot about death from this memoir. The writing style of the author is nice. The title of the book is suitable and the cover photo is nice. Those who are in the medical field would find this book more intriguing.
Those who enjoy reading memoirs should definitely get their hands on this book. I am glad to read it. The years of experience of the author in the field of studying death was reflected well in this book.
