A gift for a ghost  Cover Image Book Book

A gift for a ghost / a graphic novel by Borja González ; English translation by Lee Douglas.

González, Borja, 1982- (author,, illustrator.). Douglas, Lee, (translator.).

Summary:

"In Borja González's stunning graphic novel, two parallel stories reflect and intertwine in a tale of youthful dreams and desires. In 1856, Teresa, a young aristocrat, is more interested in writing avantgarde horror poetry than making a suitable marriage. In 2016, three teenage girls, Gloria, Laura, and Cristina, want to start a punk band called the Black Holes. They have everything they need: attitude, looks, instinct . . . and an alarming lack of musical talent. They've barely started rehearsing when strange things begin to happen. As their world and Teresa's intersect, they're haunted by the echo of something that happened 160 years ago."--Publisher's website.
