Ghosts is a 1993 novel by John Banville. It was his first novel since 1989's The Book of Evidence, which was shortlisted for the Booker Prize. The second in what Banville described as a "triptych", to make "an investigation of the way in which the imagination works."
"Ghosts" is a worthy sequel to "The Book of Evidence". John Banville evidently decided that he hadn't finished with the character, Freddie Montgomery, and the intrigues that might surround him in the parallel worlds in which he lived.
There are three children, who are looked after by Flora, whose job it is, a photographer, Sophie, who is doing a book of photos of ruins, an old man, Croke, and Felix, who may be wanted by the police and who may have some dirt on the professor and even on Freddie, but never reveals it.
From the Booker Prize-winning author of The Sea comes a brilliantly haunting novel that forges an unforgettable amalgam of enchantment and menace that suggests both The Tempest and his own acclaimed The Book of Evidence.
