How did “Death” characterize the year 1942? Why do you think the author has “Death” narrate this tale, using a chatty, somewhat ironic tone? Do you think this adds or detracts from the book’s serious themes? Why?

Death says he hasn't been so overworked since the Black Plague.

"1942, for Death, is one of those years where, more than most times in the full picture of human history, Death has to work just a bit harder."
