    "description": "\u2018What if the man who invented chemical weapons was also a grandfather, and what if his great-grandchildren grew up to be three hilarious, introverted, deeply-haunted sisters? And what if those sisters co-wrote a fascinating, funny, and deeply sad 350-page suicide note? Then you\u2019d have A REUNION OF GHOSTS.\u2019  Anthony Doerr    Meet the Alter sisters: Lady, Vee and Delph. These three mordantly witty, complex women share their family\u2019s apartment on Manhattan\u2019s Upper West Side. They love each other fiercely, but being an Alter isn\u2019t easy. Bad luck is in their genes, passed down through the generations. Yet no matter what life throws at these siblings, they always have a wisecrack \u2013 and each other.    In the waning days of 1999, the sisters decide it\u2019s time to close the circle of the Alter curse. But first, as the world counts down to the dawn of a new millennium, Lady, Vee and Delph must write the final chapter of a saga generations in the making \u2013 one that is inexorably intertwined with that of the twentieth century itself. Unspooling threads of history, personal memory and family lore, they weave a mesmerising account of their lives that stretches back decades to their great-grandfather, a brilliant scientist whose professional triumph became the sinister legacy that defines them.    Magnificent and heartbreaking, A REUNION OF GHOSTS is an epic novel about three unforgettable women, bound to each other and their remarkable family through the blessings and the burdens bestowed by blood",
