My name is Life. In this book, we meet Life, taking the form of a kind and attentive being. Above all, she loves to give hope and empower people. This work is a hymn to life and the planet we live on. Through illustrations and text, the authors narrate various aspects of existence: interaction with the surrounding world, people, animals, and nature. Together with her "partner" — the book "My name is Death" — these stories address fundamental questions of human existence, revealing them in an incredibly poetic and aesthetic form.
My name is Death. I am a part of life, love, and you. Death is a part of life, love, and all of us. In this book, we meet Death, taking the form of a kind and attentive being. Her "job" is to gather everyone who is about to die — this can include insects and elephants, children and the elderly. Death plays an irreplaceable role, for without her, there would be no room for new life to arise. Death performs her task as gently and attentively as possible. Together with the book "My name is Life," these works explore existential questions that weave together our entire existence in a subtle allegorical manner. The illustrations elegantly and pictorially accompany the challenging theme, while not evoking feelings of fear in the reader.
