Description
Mrs Death Misses Death by Salena Godden is a life-affirming novel about an eternal figure who has had enough. Exhausted from her job, she seeks someone to share her stories with. Wolf Willeford, a troubled young writer, becomes her confidant and scribe, embarking on a journey through time and place as they write her memoirs. Together, Mrs Death and Wolf travel across different eras, witnessing deaths of the past and present, and discussing what the future holds for humanity. As their friendship grows, it becomes a surprising affirmation of hope, resilience, and love. Despite her world-weariness, Mrs Death must continue to hold humans' fates in her hands, appearing in our lives when we least expect her. This novel explores themes of loss, grief, and the human experience through the unique perspective of Death herself.
