Godmother Night

This book is a tear-jerker. I had tears streaming down my face at the end. I had to walk around a bit to chill before writing this review. It's a modern-day fairy tale told in a somewhat naïve voice about the personification of death in the lives of a lesbian couple and their daughter. Despite its simple language, the prose is wonderful and the plot is inventive. It poses the question of what death would be like as a godmother.
