I also read that book in Spanish a while ago, but I didn't remember that particular detail about death's gender.

While I do tend to picture death as a feminine concept (as a native Spanish speaker), I find interesting the works when it is presented as a male, because picturing death as male, while having the feminine concept at the same time in my head, helps me visualize death as this incorporeal, untouchable concept (I don't know if I'm making any sense).

But, if you want to read another good book with death as a misterious, ethereal woman, I can reccomend you "La dama del alba" by Alejandro Casona. In that play Death is a pale, beautiful lady, who has to fight having the emotions of a woman while at the same time being condemned to kill everyone for eternity (a favorite of mine!)
