MAIJA MÄKINEN - The Ghosts of Other Immigrants - Pre Order .png

“Funny, bittersweet, and filled with many kinds of longing, these stories show that though we are often defined by relationships to both people and places, we are also capable of defining ourselves on our own terms and that home follows us like a ghost wherever we go. A subtle and compelling collection with superb prose.” —Kirkus Reviews
