I don't know if I can find the words for it, but if this country ever recovers, it will not be in my lifetime.

Reviewers said Ghost Country was rich, astonishing and affecting in the way it blended comedy, magic, and a gritty urban realism in a breathtaking ride along Chicago's mean streets.

I had wanted to write Ghost Country for a long time, but it wouldn't work.
