The Ghost Twins

By Carol Fortino

In this novel Carol Fortino tells of Louise Hammel, the indomitable academic who reluctantly undertakes a task urged on her by her dying twin sister: to find their birth parents and construct a narrative of their family history in a semi-fictional book she called The Ghost Twins. We journey with Louise to Paris with her lover Jean-Luc Renaud and the French countryside which is described in luscious detail. Louise stays at the family chateau in Cassis where she is free to write the compassionate tale based on her sister's research. Louise imagines her young parents' lives when attitudes toward interracial marriage, economic stresses and the pain of adoption complicate their lives. The series ends with Louise poised to undertake the next adventure in her own life with her fiancé Jean-Luc. Margaret M. Barber, Emeritus Professor of English
