Deep Thoughts from a Shallow Grave: Epitaphs to Die For

A gloriously dark book filled with funny illustrations about life and death. Deep Thoughts from a Shallow Grave celebrates life in its humorous and often satirical confrontation of death. Conceived and written by Martignetti in the early days of the 2020 lockdown, these witty illustrated tombstones were shared with his family and friends, bringing some (albeit dark) humor to their days when there wasn't much other good news. More than one hundred of these off-kilter meditations on life and death are now collected in this book. Handwritten epitaphs such as "Waiting to inhale" and "There are fifty better ways to leave your lover" will have readers chuckling and prompt reflection on the absurdity of this fleeting and precious thing we call life.
