Description

From one of Britain's finest authors, a deeply personal and beautifully written memoir of childhood, illness, and family. Hilary Mantel's Giving Up the Ghost is a wry and shocking account of her own experiences, full of insight and wit.

This is a story of ghosts, both real and metaphorical, that haunt the author's life and shape her memories of childhood. With characteristic literary skill, Mantel explores the complexities of family, illness, and the human experience.

A deeply personal and thought-provoking memoir, Giving Up the Ghost is a book that will resonate with anyone who has ever struggled to make sense of their own life and experiences.
