"[This] series of Christmas ghost stories, miniature books chosen and illustrated by the cartoonist Seth ... [offers] chills--and charm."--New York Times Book Review

World-renowned cartoonist Seth returns with three new ghost stories for 2023.

Maitland returns to his ancestral estate after having lived a largely solitary life. He soon finds himself increasingly obsessed with the magnificent field of poppies surrounding his home, as well as the man harvesting them.

His comics have appeared in the New York Times Magazine, Best American Comics, and McSweeney's Quarterly.
