Ghost Mountain

Where once there were only fields, suddenly a mountain appears overnight, changing the lives of the surrounding community. Through a series of completely ordinary yet unique characters, this fine novel explores the peaks and valleys of human existence. Warm-hearted, humorous, wise, tender, and almost casually, it opens up entire worlds.

In delightful, funny, and sometimes shocking ways, Hession shows that our own lives are just as inexplicable and mysterious as this magical mountain. Hession evokes Murakami before he became famous and Beckett after he became an adjective. What a joy that such books are still being written.
