ABOUT THE BOOK: The town of HOME is unlike any other. Its streets are lined with houses that refuse to let go of their dead, trapping restless spirits within their walls. Those who grieve come from all over, willing to pay any price for a chance to see their lost loved ones again, but the dead don’t always make room for the living. Ai Jiang’s LINGHUN is a haunting meditation on loss, longing, and the sacrifices we make for the ones we love. Beautiful, lyrical, and evocative, it lingers like a ghost long after the final page.
