Clara Rowland, Madalena Matoso - Fantasmas

Good ghosts are hard to catch: they disappear when we want to see them most, they reveal themselves when we're distracted, they blend into our everyday gestures.

In this book, we try to learn to see them where we think they hide best: in our shadows, echoes, images; in the names we give to things, houses, people; in what we write, in the stories we read, in the films we immerse ourselves in until we no longer know which side of the mirror we're on.

Ghost stories without ghosts? In these pages, imagined stories intersect with stories found in books, paintings, photographs, or films. They are all, each in their own way, invitations to explore this life of ghosts, which intertwines with our own.
