Description: "A lush exploration of the vibrant and important traditions of Dâia de Muertos, Mexico's holiday for celebrating passed loved ones."--Provided by publisher.

Review Quotes: "Navarro artfully combines family history--including personal snapshots and bittersweet memories of a cousin who died suddenly of a stroke in her 20s--with deep dives into subjects such as the Aztec goddess of death and failed attempts to obliterate Indigenous cultures. Equal parts moving and educational, the book works as ethnographic study, as Navarro travels to different regions to observe variations in their holidaymaking, but it also succeeds on an even larger scale, as she writes sensitively about death and acceptance. This bright and tender book gives readers heartfelt encouragement that 'there is no wrong way to honor the ones you love.'"
