White Ghosts by Katie Hale Arvis Viguls non-fiction or poetry best evokingWhite Ghosts, the debut collection by poet and novelist Katie Hale, traces maternal lines, and the legacies of slavery and whiteness interwoven into the fabric of America, through revealing, unflinching poems. Travelling deep into an intimate history that spans both sides of the Atlantic, Hale unravels the language haunting those narratives we choose to tell in official versions through museum labels and civic statues and in handed down stories.
