Abstract

This is a creative thesis centering around four different lives; each is unrelated to the next in every way except one. I titled my thesis "In the Presence of Ghosts" because in each story the protagonist is not quite there. When dealing with loss we tend also to lose a part of ourselves. The idea of not being fully present in one's own life is fascinating to me and I try to explore this notion in separate ways and to different ends.

This thesis is restricted to the Claremont Colleges current faculty, students, and staff.
