We Are All Ghosts in the Forest: We Are All Ghosts in the Forest, cartea 1
Autor Lorraine Wilsonen Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 noi 2024
When a wordless boy finds her in the marketplace with nothing but her name in his pocket, her curiosity won’t allow her to turn him away. But haunting his arrival are rumours of harvest failure and a rampant digital disease stirring up the ghosts, and the mood in the village starts to sour.
Accused of witchcraft, Katerina and Stefan escape into the forest, searching for his missing father and the truth behind the disease. If there is a cure, Katerina alone might find it, but first she must find the courage to trust others – because the ghosts that follow her aren’t just digital.

Recenzii
"Complex, rich and beautifully crafted" – Claire North on Mother Sea
"Lyrical, moving, and at times haunting… This is a book I will be thinking about for a long time. Just brilliant!" – Awais Khan on Mother Sea
"We Are All Ghosts In The Forest is a poignant and lyrical portrayal of intimate frailties and quiet strength. In killing the Internet, Wilson makes us contemplate the majesty of the natural world -- both its beauties and its horrors." —Nicholas Binge, author of Ascension
"An intricately-woven tale that blends fairy stories, contemporary anxieties about climate change and the influence of technology on our human selves, with a story that is, at its core, a tale of community and connection." —Angie Spoto, author of The Grief Nurse
“A testament to the power of an open mind and an open heart, Wilson’s apocalypse is both frightening and reassuring and there is no better guide for it than Katya.” —Joma West, author of Face
“A beautiful, lyrical tale of fear and alienation, love and acceptance.” —Fiona Erskine, author of the Jacqueline Silver Adventures
“Lorraine Wilson’s We Are All Ghosts in the Forest is an exquisite novel, a tale in which the past casts its long shadow upon the future in a moving portrayal of humanity’s quest for meaning and belonging in the face of the unknown. Its vivid imaginings are a mirror to our present-day concerns: intricately woven, it draws you deep into a lush, vibrant world that blends the digital apocalypse with the timelessness of myths and fairy stories. Haunting, heartwarming, and brimming with hope, its echoes will stay with you long after you turn the last page!” -- Lavanya Lakshminarayan, Arthur C. Clarke Award-nominated author of The Ten Percent Thief
“A poetic, genre-defying 'grim lullaby' which pits noise against silence, and urban chaos against dark, fairytale forests. In this futuristic fable, Wilson births a new breed of ghosts which have the potential to haunt us all, and shows us that the path to redemption lies in togetherness, acceptance, and love.” -- Caroline Hardaker, author of Mothtown
“An ethereal and quietly unsettling tale of magical realism for the twenty-first century. Eloquent and highly imaginative, yet also deeply prescient, this is an example of folkloric world building at its best.” – Lucie McKnight Hardy, author of Water Shall refuse Them
“We Are All Ghosts in the Forest is a hauntingly beautiful blend of genres. It's a tale of loneliness and community, folklore rituals, and technology, and a unique journey into the woods set in a future that feels both on the verge of happening and yet a world away. Raine Wilson is a bold talent in the speculative field.” -- L.R. Lam, author of Dragonfall
“Haunting and atmospheric, with a really excellent ghost cat.” -- Naomi Kritzer, Hugo Award-winning author of “The Year Without Sunshine”
“Eerie and original.” —SFX
