Lincoln in the Bardo by George Saunders is a novel set in February 1862, centered on the grief of a fictionalized Abraham Lincoln after the death of his son, Willie. The story blends historical events with a supernatural, dreamlike realm called the "bardo" (Tibetan for an intermediate state between death and rebirth) where Willie's soul is trapped. The narrative is told through the voices of numerous ghosts in the cemetery who are struggling with their own transitions.
