"Ghost Stories is truly inspired work ... the second volume of a trilogy that firmly establishes Lemire as one of the premier storytellers in the graphic arts." -- Steve Duin, The Oregonian
"A great graphic novel ... I had tears in my eyes when I was done." -- Whitney Matheson, USA Today
The critically-acclaimed second volume in a trilogy of graphic novels set in a fictionalized version of Jeff Lemire’s hometown of Essex County, Ontario. Ghost Stories follows the lives and relationship of brothers Lou and Vince Lebeuf over the course of nearly seven decades. In this volume, eldest brother Lou, now a deaf and lonely man, lives out his final days on his farm full of guilt and regret for the decisions he made that tore his family apart. From their childhood on the farm, to Toronto in the 1950’s (where they both played professional hockey), Lou revisits his life, a silent observer haunted by his own memories.
