ClassGraphic Do you enjoy exploring other cultures and traditions? Join us as we read and discuss eight fascinating stories from Korea, Yemen, Poland, Japan, Uzbekistan, Iceland, Tanzania, and Thailand. We will also discuss the authors, translators, and some background information relating to the stories. Our primary text is Ghost Stories: I Was Alive Here Once by Sarah Coolidge (Two Lines Press, 2026). We will read and discuss two stories (about 50 pages) each week. Through eight contemporary stories exploring a range of genres, from fantasy and horror to eco-fiction and romance, this collection breathes new life into the ghost story, foregoing familiar tropes to speak to today’s unique political and ecological horrors.
