From Kenya to Quebec, these wry and unconventional stories explore the different ways we're haunted .Teenagers philosophize on the nature of ontology while fearing there's a ghost in the old mill they're stuck in; a man encounters an old friend in the unlikeliest of places; nineteenth-century inventor Sigismund Mohr is vividly brought back from obscurity; and two journalists travel to Kenya for a conference, where one of them has a paranoid breakdown. It Is an Honest Ghost is a funny and often eerie collection that explores what lies beyond mortality - if anything, that is.'A thrilling collection: hot-headed, existential, crystalline. Goldbach's novella Hic et Ubique illuminates the nightmare of being a man in this world - the twisted, spiritual conversion of buddy into warrior. This book is cadenced and visionary.' - Tamara Faith Berger'Searching and restless, a new Goldbach story is a thing to celebrate. A whole collection of them? A Mardi Gras of mischievous goodness. This fiction slays hearts in the most wondrous of ways.' - Jeff Parker | It Is An Honest Ghost by John Goldbach, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
