In "Not Exactly Ghosts," Andrew Caldecott intricately weaves a tapestry of supernatural tales that challenge the boundaries of reality and the human psyche. Caldecott's literary style is both atmospheric and evocative, employing vivid imagery and rich symbolism to explore themes of loss, memory, and the unseen forces that shape our lives. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century England, the collection presents a nuanced examination of the ghost story genre, defying conventional tropes and interrogating the nature of belief and skepticism.
