"I don't want my father to die."

MALAGASH is a sad story about a 39 year old father close to death....a father with a dark sense of humor and a wonderful spirit....a father with a beloved daughter who finds a way to keep her dad alive forever giving her scared little waif of a brother and grieving mother a powerful gift.

200 pages of heartbreak, and a true original. (Skip the overview on this one - TMI)

Many thanks to ECW Press via NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I'm having the same problem Zoey and am doubly frustrated bc home improvement stuff has put the kibosh on my reading time. But thank you!
