A Dirty Job by Christopher MooreMy review
rating: 4 of 5 stars
And now for something completely different....
I've been spending lots of time reading children's lit, then broke from that to read some non fiction and a sweeping tale of class and culture. Then I read this.
What an odd but engaging book! I enjoyed the character's simple acceptance of the increasingly bizarre happenings around him- he goes from regular guy to a Buffy-esque death merchant defending all of San Francisco against the Death Lords while raising a daughter and running a business.
Lots of different points of views of death here worth pondering, and watch for a surprisingly moving and real page describing nurses and the hospice movement.
