This is a wonderful book (3.5 stars) however not if one can’t handle a lengthy, depressing story for the majority of the novel. As my usual it is historical fiction during the time of WWI and the pandemic of Spanish flu. The details of this time may not be for everyone as it is pretty horrific as this flu claims thousands of lives. And the story takes place at a funeral home! But the characters are rich and the writing vivid and the story so engrossing and endearing in many ways.Each chapter comes from the first person perspective of each of the female characters...the mother Pauline, and daughters Evie, Maggie and Willa. I loved Pauline, Evie and Maggie most of all but admit I could have slapped Willa silly on more than one occasion! But remember strong dislike of a character only means the author is gifted in her storytelling! It is indifference that makes a book boring ....and I was never bored reading this from page one! I normally would not have picked up a book like this, but in the early 1990's I met an elderly woman who lost both her mother and her father within two days to the Spanish influenza in Philadelphia when she was a young child. She ended up being raised by her sisters. By the time I met her, she was elderly and had lost her sight, but she said she could still see, in her mind, how the caskets were stacked out on the street in front of the row houses.What I found in "As Bright as Heaven" was much like what this kind, elderly woman told me about her experiences in 1918, Philadelphia.What I wasn't expecting was the story itself, and the excellent writing of Susan Meissner. Finding satisfying fiction these days is harder and harder to get. which is why I generally stick to the classics, or non-fiction. Charles Todd is another exception. But the surprises Meissner inserts in her tale reminded me a bit of Thornton Wilder's "The Eighth Day", and even my own novel, "Darling Liberty" which touches on age-differences in love, and recovery from disappointment and even death. Meissner's characters stayed true to themselves, right down to the spoiled brat, Willa. If people felt some of the so-called coincidences in the story were too contrived, I would question if they have ever paid attention to the bigger picture of ones lives. Such things happen everyday, if we're watching.I liked this book, and the hooks and weaves it gave me.
