Despues de escapar de Shanghai en 1957, Sun Yi recalo con su hija en Hong Kong, donde escribio unas memorias sobre la persecucion sufrida; un relato de supervivencia que se convirtio en un best seller inesperado. Al poco tiempo, sufrio una crisis nerviosa que la llevo a necesitar cuidados de por vida. Tessa crecio viendo como su madre se ocupaba mas de Sun Yi que de ella, y como iba oprimiendolas a las tres la carga de los traumas silenciados. Tras intentar escapar en vano de su pasado y vivir en los lugares mas remotos del mundo, la autora volvio a casa sabiendo que, si queria cerrar sus heridas, debia narrar su historia familiar. Alimentar a los fantasmas es el resultado de diez anos de trabajo intenso y profundo, un libro que retrata los mecanismos por los que el duelo se transmite de una generacion a otra, y que celebra el amor necesario para mantenerlas unidas."--
"In this evocative, genre-defying graphic memoir, Tessa Hulls tells the story of three generations of women: her Chinese grandmother, Sun Yi; her mother, Rose; and herself. Sun Yi was a Shanghai journalist caught in the political crosshairs of the 1949 Communist victory. After fleeing to Hong Kong with her young daughter, Sun Yi wrote a bestselling memoir about her persecution and survival -- then promptly had a breakdown that left her committed to a mental institution. Growing up, Tessa watches her mother care for Sun Yi, both of them struggling under the weight of Sun Yi's unexamined trauma and mental illness. Vowing to escape her mother's smothering fear, Tessa leaves home and travels to the farthest, most remote corners of the globe. But once she turns thirty, her roaming begins to feel less like freedom and more like running away, so she returns to face the history that shaped her family. Extensively researched and gorgeously rendered, Feeding Ghosts is Tessa Hulls's homecoming, a vivid journey into the beating heart of one family, set against the dark backdrop of Chinese history. By turns fascinating and heartbreaking, inventive and poignant, Feeding Ghosts exposes the fear and trauma that haunt generations, and the love that holds them together" --
