By: Alexa HagertyNew York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice • An anthropologist working with forensic teams and victims’ families to investigate crimes against humanity in Latin America explores what science can tell us about the lives of the dead in this haunting account of grief, the power of ritual, and a quest for justice.
“Absorbing . . . multifaceted and elegiac . . . Still Life with Bones captures the ethos that drives the search—often tireless and against the odds—for truth.”—The New York Times
WINNER OF THE JUAN E. MÉNDEZ BOOK AWARD • A NEW YORKER AND BOOKPAGE BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR
“Exhumation can divide brothers and restore fathers, open old wounds and open the possibility of regeneration—of building something new with the ‘pile of broken mirrors’ that is memory, loss, and mourning.”
Throughout Guatemala’s thirty-six-year armed conflict, state forces killed more than two hundred thousand people. Argentina’s military dictatorship disappeared up to thirty thousand people. In the wake of genocidal violence, families of the missing searched for the truth. Young scientists joined their fight against impunity. Gathering evidence in the face of intimidation and death threats, they pioneered the field of forensic exhumation for human rights.
In Still Life with Bones, anthropologist Alexa Hagerty learns to see the dead body with a forensic eye. She examines bones for marks of torture and fatal wounds—hands bound by rope, machete cuts—and also for signs of identity: how life shapes us down to the bone. A weaver is recognized from the tiny bones of the toes, molded by kneeling before a loom; a girl is identified alongside her pet dog. In the tenderness of understanding these bones, forensics not only offers proof of mass atrocity but also tells the story of each life lost.
Working with forensic teams at mass grave sites and in labs, Hagerty discovers how bones bear witness to crimes against humanity and how exhumation can bring families meaning after unimaginable loss. She also comes to see how cutting-edge science can act as ritual—a way of caring for the dead with symbolic force that can repair societies torn apart by violence.
Weaving together powerful stories about investigative breakthroughs, histories of violence and resistance, and her own forensic coming-of-age, Hagerty crafts a moving portrait of the living and the dead.

Effective water flosser, good cleaning but depends on expectations
Color: Black
Good water flosser overall. It does a solid job of cleaning between teeth and is convenient for daily oral hygiene compared to traditional flossing.
The different pressure settings are useful, allowing you to adjust intensity depending on comfort level. It’s easy to fill, use, and clean, which makes it practical for regular use.
Battery life is decent, and the device is portable enough for travel or bathroom storage without taking up much space.
Overall, a reliable water flosser that improves cleaning convenience and performs well for everyday dental care.

For good oral hygiene
Color: Pink
For people who, like me, have undergone oral surgery, this works incredibly well—and for those who haven't, it works just as well, as it helps ensure that nothing gets trapped between the teeth. It is an excellent complement to your oral hygiene routine.

Soothing, moisture-locking oral coat that eliminates morning dryness without burning your mouth
Flavor Name: Mint, Size: 33.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Standard alcohol-based mouthwashes give a powerful blast of burning freshness, but they completely dry out your tissues and make a lack of natural saliva much worse. Biotene Dry Mouth Oral Rinse fixes this issue entirely by skipping the harsh astringents. It uses a specialized mouth-moisturizing system packed with hydrating humectants like glycerin, xylitol, and sorbitol. This combination creates a slippery, lubricating layer over your gums and cheeks that mimics your natural saliva to keep your mouth comfortable and damp.
The daily utility of this formula is perfect if you struggle with persistent stickiness, difficulty swallowing dry foods, or a scratchy throat. It provides immediate relief that keeps working for up to four hours, soothing sensitive oral tissue and actively fighting the bacteria that cause chronic bad breath. The gentle, sugar-free fresh mint flavor leaves you feeling genuinely clean and maintains a healthy, balanced pH level in your mouth to protect your teeth from potential cavities. It is a fantastic, non-burning formula to use right before bed or throughout the day to completely wash away that uncomfortable, parched feeling and wake up with lasting comfort.
