I had no idea that Edith Wharton wrote any ghost stories (or any short stories for that matter) until Aidan gave me this book for Father’s Day.

As you’d probably expect from Wharton this is a collection of finely crafted and politely eerie short stories. No blood and gore, just a bit of otherworldly unease.

My favorites are Afterward, Kerfol, Miss Mary Pask, Mr Jones, and A Bottle of Perrier.

It feels weirdly fitting to read the last of these stories on Halloween!

Thanks for the gift, Aidan!
