A ghost has no substance, but it has power - and presence - and it
can appear in alternative forms. In the metaverse, we are all
alternative forms. The Dead will join us. The genre-bending and
masterful new collection of ghost stories from Jeanette Winterson
'Always passionate and provocative' NEW STATESMAN 'The best living
writer in this language' EVENING STANDARD Our lives are digital,
exposed and always-on. We track our friends and family wherever
they go. We have millennia of knowledge at our fingertips. We know
everything about our world. But we know nothing about theirs. We
have changed, but our ghosts have not. They've simply adapted and
innovated, found new channels to reach us. They inhabit our apps
and wander the metaverse just as they haunt our homes and our
memories, always seeking new ways to connect. To live amongst us.
To remind us. To tempt us. To take their revenge. These stories are
not ours to tell. They are the stories of the dead - of those we've
lost, loved, forgotten... and feared. Some are fiction. But some
may not be.
