Michael Ampersant

Rilke's Ghost Michael Ampersant

While visiting the lovely town of Duino on the Adriatic coast, Michael Ampersant provoked the wraith of the legendary German poet Rainer Maria Rilke by applying Google-translate to the wordsmith's "Duineser Elegien" (Elegies from the Castle of Duino). Now he spends the summer in Switzerland, in a chalet only three kilometers away from the grave of the poet. Will Michael be stupid enough to challenge Rilke again, thus unleashing the most sophisticated ghost story of modern history, including an exorcism of serendipitous proportions...? A quick read for quick minds.
