A ghost story far from my favourite genre but I thought I would try it as it is a minuscule novella and would take very little time to read.
The protagonist is Lauren Hartke, The Body Artist and the story centres on her being alone in a large house after the death of her late husband. Is she alone though as she discovers someone is living in the spare room. His physical presence never seems to be proved by Lauren and you are never quite sure if he is real or a figment of her imagination. He certainly seems to know a lot about her late husband Rey and even starts talking to her in his voice. A real person, a ghost, the ramblings of a recently bereaved woman; who knows?
In all I found it very strange, but maybe I did not fully understand the style this was written in.
