A visionary collection of ghost stories and prose poems from multi-award-winning poet Samuel Wagan Watson

In this spectrally inspired collection, acclaimed Mununjali/Yugambeh writer Samuel Wagan Watson challenges the boundaries between the living, the dead and the dormant in his unique lyrical and humorous style.

Watson writes of bodies, bathrooms, rivers and dreams, all inhabited by ghosts of memory and history. These stories and poems are awake to the imprints left by violent pasts, as well as those left by love, by reading and by living vividly.

New + Used Ghosts is a haunting interrogation of Country, culture and colonisation from one of Australia's greatest poetic voices.
