An Unkindness of Ghosts is an experience that will leave you asking questions about identity, ethnicity, love, familial kinship, autonomy, responsibility, group economics, and power structures. Set in the future yet, unnervingly reflective of the harmful chattel slavery past of the United States, An Unkindness of Ghosts tackles big questions through the eyes and experiences of a protagonist who is wholly unique. Filled with prose, poems, and fables – the writing, character development, and plot are elegantly woven together to create a truly beautiful lyrical tale. This is a book that will make you laugh to keep from crying, chuckle conspiratorially at your own awkwardness reflected, wince from helplessness, cringe from anticipation of its end, and ultimately yearn for more.
