I wonder if in 1000 years when future archaeologists dig up these massive coffins if they will think that these people were like some super important aristocracy in order to deserve such a magnanimous burial

White Noise by Delillo is really accessible and really good. It has fallen out of favor on Lit recently because it was over hyped on this board for a while.

It’s also contemporary. It was written in the 80s but Normie/NPC “Culturel which is a big part of the book has flourished so much that it’s actually gotten more and more relevant.

Used to work in funeral industry in customer service. One service many homes offer to avoid the expensive of buying a monster casket and two grave sites is a partial crematorium. The body is burned one section at a time and the head is prepared and affixed to a dummy during the funeral and burial so a smaller cask can be used. It is a fair service and only marginally more expensive than your usual burial. It requires consent from parents spouse and children. Some have religious objections.

Honestly, I rather dispose of the body in a river than to behead the body and attach the head on a dummy.

Not OP, but I've read the book and really enjoyed it (outside of the disgusting shit near the end of the book, like the saliva exchange and the fedora-like religious conversation with the nun), should I read Underworld from him next?
