La Porte by Magda Szabó
4.0

“Everything has to be done properly, even death.”
This book....... was an emotional ride. It's heartwarming to see the relationship between Emerence and the narrator blossom. You too can feel that it's something different from anything else, something special. And the last third of the book shows you how you can hurt some of the most important people in your life, while trying to help them. A book about death and life, dignity and shame, remorse and regrets. Definitely tugged many of my heartstrings.
