It includes personal and never-before-seen writing from Paul himself, in the form of letters he wrote to Siri, as well as his last unfinished work, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eLetters to Miles\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e. The book is both an elegy and a reckoning—a chronicle of personal loss that also bears witness to the cascading sorrows of recent years, including the tragic deaths of Hustvedt’s stepson and infant granddaughter.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHustvedt explores how grief unmoors time, how the intimacy of a shared life continues to mark the everyday, and how the body experiences the absence of love as a presence. She meditates on the things and papers Auster left behind and reflects on the forty-three years they spent together, and on the rituals of mourning and the nature of language, memory, and the self.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePart memoir, part philosophical inquiry, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eGhost Stories\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is unflinching, tender, and wise.
