🐺 ‘Mrs Death Misses Death’ is available for pre-order now!
“Wolf Willeford, a troubled young writer, is well acquainted with death, but until now hadn’t met Death in person — a black woman who shape-shifts and does her work unseen. Enthralled by her stories, Wolf becomes Mrs Death’s scribe, and begins to write her memoirs. Using their desk as a vessel and conduit, Wolf travels with Mrs Death to witness deaths of past and present and discuss what the future holds for humanity. As Godden swoops between literary forms in Mrs Death and Wolf’s interactions, the friendship sparks questions about class, race, gender and mental health. And ultimately, while mortality lies at the heart of the novel, Mrs Death Misses Death is a bold and visionary affirmation of hope, resilience and love.”
My first review has been added to the book description, some words from the great Alan Moore, author of Watchmen, V for Vendetta, From Hell, Jerusalem, Swamp Thing and more, more, Moore ... endorsement like this for a new book and first time novelist is so vital. I'm blown away by this generosity ... THANK YOU ALAN MOORE!
Mrs Death Misses Death has been described by the publishers as an electrifying, genre- and form-defying fire-starter of a novel.
