The night-bird's feather
(Book)

"Death's daughter steals a girl's self-hate to decorate her garden. An accidental bond of fate forms between them-across the vast uncharted wildlands between their worlds and a great gulf of time-and begins a friendship redefining both. A book for all who long to cast aside their weighty cloaks of human skin, unfurl the feathered wings beneath, and fall into the sky.In Perdition, where Death's daughter's garden grows, your dreams are dead. Your heart is dead. Your wishes, too. That is simply in the nature of the place. Thus, when she encounters there a thing she actively desires not to look upon, it is precious; alluring. A matter of the highest interest-to desire anything at all. She resolves to catch it; to tame it; to make it a portion of herself and of her garden. Only, it is something spoken for: the anger, self-loathing, and despair of Valentina Grigorievna Sosunova, of the lands of life"--,Amazon.
