    One of the most unusual and charming "ghost stories" ever written, A Fine and Private Place introduces readers to Michael Morgan, an ordinary man in an ordinary life, who is not quite ready to be dead. Until he is ready, Michael finds himself trapped between this world and what comes next. He is able to speak only with Mr. Rebeck, the eccentric recluse who lives in a nearby mausoleum, and with an ornery raven, until Laura arrives, ready to take up residence in the cold earth of her grave.

    Richard Taylor says: "Surprising and wonderful"

    Story

    About half way through the book I decided I had to share this book with my wife. We started again from the beginning and listened to it together in the car each day, and we both loved it. It's full of mystery, fantasy, wit and, mostly, charm. Mr. Beagle's reading of his own story with his great Bronx accent clenches the time and place feel of the book. This fantasy is not the sort of thing I usually read, but I was utterly charmed.
