About This Item
New York: Harper, 2021. First edition. Hardcover. A very good plus copy (light soiling to front cover) in a near fine clean dust jacket. A wickedly funny ghost story; a tale of passion, of a complex marriage, and of a woman's relentless errors. Here, Erdrich asks what we owe to the living, to the dead, to the reader, and to the book. A small independent bookstore in Minneapolis is haunted from November 2019 to November 2020 by teh store's most annoying customer. Flora dies on All Souls' Day, but she simply won't leave the store. Tookie, who has landed a job selling books after years of incarceration that she survived by reading "with murderous attention," must solve the mystery of this haunting while at the same time trying to understand all the occurs in Minneapolis during a year of grief, astonishment, isolation, and furious reckoning. 386 pages.
