Reviews
"The Shrouding Woman gently breaks new ground for children in removing some of the mystery from what some view as our last remaining obscenity, death."
"As solid as a Dutch farmhouse interior and full of glimpses of lost pioneer traditions, from soap-making to the step-by-step ritual of preparing a dead body for burial."
