In the critically acclaimed <i>Riddance: Or: The Sybil Joines Vocational School for Ghost Speakers & Hearing-Mouth Children</i>, children with stutters and other speech impediments attend a school in Massachusetts to learn how to channel the dead. Written in the form of transcripts, found documents, and archival material, the novel is a disquieting supernatural investigation into life after death, and marks the much-anticipated return of a brilliant writer.
