Just finished Ghosts. I'll save my thoughts for the review. What I will say is, as usual, Cesar Aira's writing, in spite of all the somewhat elusive philosophizing, is absolutely intoxicating. I felt as if I were effortlessly sifting through even the "difficult" parts by no force of my own--perhaps spiraling even. (Pretty sure there's an opening for a Ghosts-inspired metaphor right there, but I haven't found it yet.)
