"... an elegant and original addition to the literature of subversion, alchemically blending the traditional Asian ghost story with the European gothic tradition... intelligent, politically aware, sexy, and above all spooky." STEPHEN CARVER author of SHARK ALLEY: THE MEMORIS OF A PENNY-A-LINER
"... everything I love about a gothic ghost story: intimate, familiar, yet deeply unsettling." SUFFIAN HAKIM author of THE MINORITIES
"... a riveting and sensuous voyage into drama and duality, love and betrayal, dreams and delusions, family and belonging. Reader, prepare to be deliciously unsettled." YVONNE ADHIAMBO OWUOR author of THE DRAGONFLY SEA
"Spectral and haunting, The Ash House spirits you deep within the Tjoa household. Encountering the pain, turmoil and deep longing experienced by three generations, you must continue reading till the last page to fully comprehend the lasting impact of a buried family secret." VERENA TAY author of SPECTRE: STORIES FROM DARK TO LIGHT
"Compelled by sexual desire and the emptiness of unrequited love, the characters of Audrey Chin’s Ash House reside in 21st century SouthEast Asia and in the landscapes of our own souls . . . cleverly crafted . . . a bold, intriguing, and eminently readable narrative . . ." ANTOINETTE TIDJANI ALOU author of Author of Tina Shot Me Between the Eyes and Other Stories
"An intelligent and imaginative ghost story, yet so much more . . . opens our eyes to all the beings in South East Asian cities we often simply don’t see. Not just ghosts . . . also flesh and blood humans like Girl, a migrant worker from Indonesia. Chin spins a web that entangles the reader as much as the vivid and fascinating characters whose lives and dreams are thwarted by forces bigger than themselves." KARIEN VAN DITZHUIJZEN author of A YELLOW HOUSE
