GHOST TOWN

A Liverpool Shadowplay

“A stunningly beautiful book about the ways time, memory and life shape and change cities, families and all of us.”

Ghost Town is a deeply personal book of remembering and forgetting, yet when we cross its threshold we also discover the labyrinth of a master storyteller, whose unforgettable characters gather in our thoughts like moths around lamplight.
