{"product_id":"9781399753845","title":"Ghost Stories","description":"\u003cp\u003e'Ghost Stories' is Siri Hustvedt's most personal work yet, a searing and intimate meditation on grief, memory, and enduring love, written in the aftermath of the death of her husband, writer, poet and filmmaker Paul Auster. It is a patchwork-quilt book that stitches together memories from over 40 years of love and life together: journal entries Siri wrote between early November 2023, when Paul first became ill, and 3 May 2024, the day of his funeral; e-mails Siri sent to friends during Paul's cancer treatment; notes Paul sent her over the course of their relationship; and three love letters Siri wrote to him in 1981, when he left her for a period of nine or ten days to return to his former life with his first wife and son. The book also contains Paul Auster's last ever piece of writing - the first 35 pages of what he hoped would be a small book of letters to Siri's and his grandson, Miles Auster Hustvedt Ostrander, born on 1 January 202\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Siri Hustvedt","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56852192985466,"sku":"9781399753845","price":22.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0423\/0240\/6809\/files\/9781399753845_e9a0b1f3-fba5-4907-93d7-89eda2890bcc.jpg?v=1780056071","url":"https:\/\/winstonebooks.co.uk\/products\/9781399753845","provider":"Winstone's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
