The God of Grandma Forever

111 pp. | Front | April, 2001 | Trade ISBN 1-886910-69-3 $$14.95
(3) 4-6 Translated by Nancy Forest-Flier. Young Maria reluctantly gives up "her" attic when the difficult, bed-ridden Grandma Forever (so nicknamed because she is ninety-three) comes to live with the family. The two slowly develop a relationship, which, because of Maria's faith that the dead are merely sleeping, continues even after Grandma Forever dies. Maria's voice is fresh and her story an original one about friendship and faith.
