Ghost Stations

Patrick McGuinness - poet, novelist, translator, editor, critic and speaker of several languages - writes in Ghost Stations about his personal history, the unofficial histories of places in which he has lived, and some of the lesser known byways of European literature and art. He re-opens branchlines closed for 'efficiency'. He notices the extraordinary hiding in plain sight - in the local, the mundane. His book is an act of resistance and modest, undogmatic revelation.
