Motherhood: A Ghost Story by Anna Brook PRE-ORDER
Published 30th September 2025. Available for pre-order.
Anna Brook's Motherhood: A Ghost Story is an unguarded, lyrical excavation of the thresholds between presence and absence, memory and immediacy, selfhood and care. In a prose that is at once intimate and elliptical, Brook traces the spectral nature of early motherhood-how the body is unmade and remade, how time dissolves and reforms, how the past and present flicker in and out of alignment. Layered with literary echoes and visceral sensory detail, this work resists easy categorisation, existing in the liminal space between memoir, poetry, and philosophical meditation.
