Last Landscapes: The Architecture of the Cemetery in the West
'One of the most thought-provoking books of the year.'  -  The Independent 'A richly humane and engrossing book ... a work that is warm, compassionate, intelligent and thought-provoking.'  -  Building Design 'A remarkably beautiful book ... As a long-time professor of worship, I spent many years talking with seminarians and pastors about theological and liturgical aspects of rites related to death. Last Landscapes shows that such conversations would be enriched if they were to address topics that Worpole discusses with such sensitivity and insight.'  -  Anglican Theological Review 'Reading this book is a pleasure. The book is beautifully illustrated with photography by Larraine Worpole ... It spends time with architectural and landscape history, makes tracks through sociology and economics, ponders theological and philosophical positions, and lingers before some remarkable aesthetic achievements.'  -  The Twentieth Century Society Journal
