If you enjoy fireworks, I recommend George Plimpton's book, Fireworks : A History and Celebration. His description of the annual Perfect Liberty Fireworks Festival in Osaka is wonderful.

He actually had his ashes loaded into a pyrotechnics shell. [0] - https://www.amazon.com/Fireworks-History-Celebration-George-...…
