Tag hinzufügen | Zusammenfassung: | "Morgan's home is a sanctuary for ghosts. The once-grand, now dilapidated old house they live in has become a refuge for their found family. From Morgan's partner Araminta, an artist with excellent dress sense, to Theo, a ten-year-old with an excess of energy, to quiet telekinesthetic pensioner Denny, all of them consider this haunted house their home. In a world that wasn't built for their queer, neurodivergent selves, they've made it into a place they belong. Together they welcome not just the ghosts of the house's former inhabitants, but any who need somewhere to belong. Both the living and the dead can find themselves in need of a sanctuary. When a collection of ghosts trapped in old bottles are delivered to their door, something from the past is unleashed. A man who once collected ghosts - a man who should have died centuries before - suddenly has the house under his control. Morgan must trust their own abilities, and their hard-won sense of self, to save their home, their family, and the woman they love." -- Page 4 of cover |

| Beschreibung: | "This note is for those readers who prefer to be warned about topics included that might be difficult reading. It does contain some spoilers. Sanctuary includes physical violence and injury, suicide both completed and attempted, self harm, loss of a sibling, imprisonment (outside the state system), and magical control of a person. There is also discussion of emotional, physical, and ableist abuse of young people, including through therapeutic and educational systems. Several characters experience difficulties relating to ongoing illness including physical pain and anxiety. A scene in which a character's creative work is destroyed is deeply linked to trauma. Some characters have had negative experiences with the police and the medical system, and others fear these. This leads to avoidance of medical care, and discussion of possible negative outcomes. There is mention of racism and other oppressions, and briefly of slavery (in a historical context). I have done my best to handle these topics with care and respect. If you choose to keep reading, I hope you can do so in a way that works well for you."-- From Content Note in Sanctuary |
