The Cremator (Spalovač mrtvol) 55 years old

NO ONE WILL SUFFER

The Cremator

Mr. Kopfrkingl enjoys his job at a crematorium in Czechoslovakia in the late 1930s. He likes reading the Tibetan book of the dead, and espouses the view that cremation relieves earthly suffering. There may be another idealogy that fits snugly with his existing worldview.
