The Interview
Nyx Book Reviews: Hi Daniel, welcome to Nyx Book Reviews. Can you tell us a bit about yourself?
Daniel Clausen: I read too much. Sometimes, I write too much. Luckily, I do most other things in moderation. Up until this very moment of my life, I’ve been most proud of my short story collection, The Lexical Funk. The book was almost everything I wanted it to be. In a year or so, I hope I can look back with some kind of objectivity and say that Ghosts of Nagasaki was a great book.

Could you describe your book, The Ghosts of Nagasaki, in one sentence?
The book is a novel of ghostly possession, memory, and (perhaps) redemption that is real from a certain point of view.

What makes your book stand out from other books in the fantasy genre?
The book is a specific kind of fantasy: magic realism. Fans of pure fantasy may not like this book. Fans of pure ghosts stories will probably not like this book. Fans of Haruki Murakami will find some elements very familiar and likable. People who believe that mortgage-backed securities and unionized ghosts share a mystical relationship will find this novel perhaps the most truest thing they have ever read.
