It's close to a howl.' \u003ci\u003e-The New York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eGhost Stories\u003c\/i\u003e is an intimate meditation on grief, memory, and enduring love, written after the death of Siri Hustvedt's husband, Paul Auster. The book includes personal, never-before-seen writing by Auster-letters and notes to Siri and his last unfinished book addressed to his grandson,\u003ci\u003e Letters to Miles\u003c\/i\u003e. The memoir is both an elegy and a reckoning, a chronicle of personal loss that also bears witness to the sorrows of recent years-the tragic deaths of Hustvedt's stepson and granddaughter.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Hustvedt explores how grief unmoors time, how the intimacy of a shared life continues to mark the everyday, and how the body experiences the absence of love as a presence. She reflects on the things and papers Auster left behind, the forty-three years they spent together, the rituals of mourning, and the nature of language, memory, and the self.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Part memoir, part philosophical inquiry, \u003ci\u003eGhost Stories\u003c\/i\u003e is unflinching, tender, and wise. It is a story of a woman haunting her own life, and the ghosts that inhabit us even as we carry on.","brand":"Buchserien.de","offers":[{"title":"Neuware","offer_id":53538202648914,"sku":"9781668227800","price":21.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0615\/7002\/3593\/files\/unnamed_8dceb8e1-5b14-488c-9a9a-1bfd19bf6b16.jpg?v=1779519521","url":"https:\/\/www.buchserien.de\/products\/ghost-stories","provider":"Buchserien.de","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
