The author of The War Between the Tates and the Pulitzer prize-winning Foreign Affairs now brings her amazing wit to the ghost report. In nine spooky tales, Alison Lurie writes of women haunted by spirits both literal and metaphorical: A woman going to marry Mr. Right is visited by the soul of his first partner; a deceased fiancé haunts a international service officer each and every time she has an intimate point in time with another man; the ghost of a girl in a Halloween costume disconcerts the perfect housewife. A secretary over a diet commences to see obese people all over she looks; a self-conscious poet is shadowed by her intrusive doppelganger; and a capricious, malevolent soul seems to have inhabited an acquisitive matron's prized piece of furniture. Delightfully odd and beautifully advised, these nine tales show Alison Lurie at her luminous best.
