@booksociety 's memento mori event: the ghost bride
"it's not a gift, my dear young lady. no, no it isn't. those feng shui masters, those ghost hunters and face readers. they like to tell people that they can do what they do because they're so talented and blessed by heaven." "and aren't they?" she leaned close to me. her breathe was pungent with a yeasty odour. "tell me, do you think it is a blessing to see the dead?"
