Award-winning translator/writer/artist Daisy Rockwell reads from her new novel Alice Sees Ghosts. Alice Bloodshaw’s grandmother lies dying in their crumbling ancestral home. Family relationships are fraught, and worsened by the mercurial behavior of Alice’s mother. Then Alice, eccentric and attuned to the supernatural, is haunted by the specter of her grandfather. His cryptic message sends Alice and her Bengali psychiatrist fiancé, practical-minded Ronit, on a journey from New England to India and back again to unearth the long-buried truths that have choked and tormented the family. Bit by bit, Alice untangles the past to confront the legacy of aristocracy, secrecy, and colonialism in a quest to mend family ties and stop living as a ghost herself.
