Tessa Hulls delves into her own family history and the intergenerational trauma caused by mental illness and political strife.
What The Reviewers Say
Wholly original and often surprising.
Despite the extreme weight of the story, the density of the historical context and the way every bit of space is utilized to communicate pictorially or verbally, that information is surprisingly digestible — and even nourishing.
What’s most compelling about Feeding Ghosts isn’t its narrative. It’s the way Hulls’s voice interjects throughout and questions her own assumptions about so-called "history".
Hull is deeply honest and vulnerable in these pages.
