"This is an irresistible and original ghost story that moves seamlessly through time and space as it unfolds the history of a brilliant, troubled Czech musician and his lost love. It’s a lyric as intricate and passionate and mournful as Beethoven’s Ghost Trio."
— Molly Gloss, judge of the Omnidawn 2020 Fabulist Fiction Chapbook / Novelette contest
"A fabulous literary page-turner, Clyde Derrick’s short, and wonderfully disturbing The Ghost Trio will make you rethink everything you thought you knew about identity, the human spirit, and the possibilities of love and partnership. Even if ghost stories aren’t your thing, you’ll be haunted by these audacious ghosts and befuddled humans long after the final, satisfying page"
— Karen Karbo, author of The Diamond Lane
