Nosotros hemos cambiado, pero ellos no: simplemente se han adaptado y han encontrado innovadores caminos para abordarnos. Habitan en nuestras aplicaciones informáticas y deambulan por el metaverso del mismo modo que antes se escondían en casas tenebrosas, empeñados en difuminar los límites entre la vida y la muerte y siempre a la caza de nuevas formas de comunicarse, de rondar nuestros recuerdos, de vengarse o de asumir el control de nuestra vida. Con un inigualable manejo de los códigos de la narrativa gótica y acompañadas de sus lúcidas reflexiones, Jeanette Winterson nos brinda trece modernas historias de fantasmas. Algunas son ficción, y otras pueden no serlo. La crítica ha dicho:«La mejor escritora viva en lengua inglesa».Evening Standard «Winterson dinamita categorías, vocabularios y convenciones tristes. Una escritora maravillosa».Marta Sanz, Babelia «Cuando leo a Winterson siento con certeza que estamos en el umbral de algo nuevo, de algo bueno».Nuria Barrios«Jeanette Winterson arroja una mirada feminista a la revolución de la inteligencia artificial».Charlotte Cripps, The Independent «Winterson es convincente, está magníficamente informada y escribe en un estilo ligero y coloquial trufado de pequeños chistes [...] y referencias a la cultura popular».Patricio Pron, Babelia«Una novelista estupenda».Gonzalo Torné, La Lectura (El Mundo) «Siempre apasionada y provocadora».New Statesman

Her friends are dead. Eric, the perfect boy she wrote into being, and his brother, Casey, are lost to the Dark Passages. With no way of knowing where she belongs, she commands the cynosure, a beacon and lens that allows for safe passage between the Many Worlds, to put her where she might find her friends--find Eric--again. What she never anticipated was waking up in the body of Little Lizzie, all grown up--or that, in this alternative London, Elizabeth McDermott is mad. In this London, Tony and Rima are "rats," teens who gather the dead to be used for fuel. Their friend, Bode, is an attendant at Bedlam, where Elizabeth has been committed after being rescued by Arthur Conan Doyle, a drug-addicted constable. Tormented by the voices of all the many characters based on her, all Elizabeth wants is to get rid of the pieces under her skin once and for all.
