The Ghosts We Know: A Walk Through Lifetimes

Audio Project - 2025

A Spoken Revival of the Best-Selling Poetic Experience

The Ghosts We Know: A Walk Through Lifetimes reached best-seller status in Amazon’s Motivational and Inspirational Poetry category, and continues to gain momentum across genres for its emotionally charged structure and deeply human resonance.

Now, the work enters a new dimension — one of voice, breath, and presence.


🎙️ A Voice-Driven Resurrection

This project brings the written word into sound — a curated audio journey through each chapter of The Ghosts We Know, performed by a diverse ensemble of voices. It is not merely a reading. It is an act of embodiment.

Each voice becomes a vessel for memory, pain, insight, and rebirth.

“The Ghosts We Know carries an emotional gravity few works attempt — a structure so intimate, so quietly devastating, that it is less a book and more a reckoning with memory, grief, and presence.”
Ghosts.io Literary Wire

The result is a multidimensional experience — intimate, atmospheric, and alive.

🌀 Why Voice?

Because memory has a sound.
Because grief doesn’t just live on the page.
Because when we speak the past aloud — it moves again.
