Granny
“The truth is, there aren’t any grown-ups. Not one, in the whole wide world.” She thought for a moment. Then she smiled.
“Except for Granny, of course.”
If you pause while reading Neil Gaiman, you’ll bump into nuggets of precious writing. I thoroughly enjoyed ‘The Ocean at the End of the Lane’ . It felt like a chapter from the Sandman comics, whimsical, dreamy, monstrous and all-round magical. It was definitely better than what most consider his best book, American Gods. Catch this book sometime, when you’re in the mood for phantasmagoria.
