My Wise Little Ghost

In My Wise Little Ghost, Hyland's latent grief over her abortion from many years ago is activated by her sister's pregnancy. Week by week, as she learns all about how her niece develops in utero, Hyland uncovers the texture of buried, complicated feelings from the impossible timing and circumstance of the end of her marriage that led to the choice she made. As she tracks memory and experience on deep psychedelic therapy journeys, the unexpected arises: "who-would've-been-Daisy" finds voice and narrates the story from somewhere off in the cosmos, in conversation with Hyland, as each speaker works through what happened and touches into who they are-and aren't-as a result of Hyland's abortion.
