Why read it?
1 author picked Molly Molloy and the Angel of Death as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This book is so very weird in the best possible way. It’s also gritty, unglamorous, tender, and impossibly beautiful.
Death isn’t some grand, scary figure, but rather a bit of a hapless rube. And his love interest Molly is doing the best she can under very trying circumstances. Seeing them come together and carve out a life is both heartbreaking and heart-healing.
