Dying & In Gratitude Review: Two Writers Come to Terms with Their Looming Deaths, Drusilla Modjeska , single work review
— Review of Dying : A Memoir Cory Taylor , 2016 single work autobiography ;
'When Cory Taylor's melanoma proves unstoppable, she finds that even then dying is little spoken of – as if "death represents some form of failure", an aversion that would seem to have us banish "the stark facts of mortality" from consciousness. In our medicalised world, we have lost, she says, "the common rituals and common language for dying". That is why she's written Dying: A Memoir – not as a cancer diary, but as a provocation into that taboo. ...'
