On Ghosts by Elizabeth Robinson
"Perhaps the most unearthly of experiences is to feel so thoroughly at ease, so full with trust that, for once, the body is not a boundary that hems one in."

A strange, unsettling, meditative experience. I'm not sure this was as much my cup of tea as I'd hoped, but it still appealed to my curiosity.
