Na co dzień jest dla Was zjawą, złodziejką, obietnicą – jakkolwiek byście jej nie traktowali, zawsze oddzielacie ją od życia. Popuśćmy jednak wodze fantazji. Pozwólmy Śmierci przemówić głosami żywych.

Oto studium na temat największej dręczycielki, a zarazem najśmielszej uwodzicielki. Dwadzieścia opowiadań, które „parszywą” robotę Śmierci ukażą z bezwstydnym polotem.
