In this charming collection of short stories from American poet and journalist Arlo Bates, weighty subjects are addressed with lighthearted wit. In the title tale, a family finds itself on the brink of collapse as a result of the resident specter's mischievous shenanigans. The other stories run the gamut in terms of subject matter, but all are satisfying and fun to read.
