Lincoln in the Bardo
'Lincoln in the Bardo' by George Saunders tells the story of Abraham Lincoln's grief-stricken visit to the crypt of his young son, Willie, who has recently died. Set in a graveyard that is populated by spirits stuck in the "bardo," the book explores themes of love, loss, and the search for redemption.
