| Plot Summary of Living Dead Girl |
|---|
"Living Dead Girl is a complex study of relationships -- husband/wife, father/daughter, parents/children -- and asks the difficult questions about what life is about when everything seems to fall apart. A very lyrical and sad book about life, death, and the meaning of both."
