FINALST FOR THE 2023 BMO WINTERSET AWARD
“A gorgeous depiction of the tender, painful stretching required to love well and expansively, to recast our ideas of romance and family.” — Aimee Wall, author of We, Jane
In the year following her mother’s death, Sophie navigates a complicated love triangle between a new flame and a past partner.
It’s the west end of Toronto, the apartments are small, and everybody is twenty-seven and making some kind of art. In the wake of her mother’s death, Sophie pays rent by making stained glass mosaics for rich people and plays house with her childhood friend and sometimes-lover, the beautiful boy Alex. Both are from Newfoundland but move easily in this world of crowded patios and DIY movie shoots.
When Sophie meets the glamorous poet Maggie, who is the downtown product of a hundred cool queer bars, she falls into a bewildered infatuation, but secrets emerge that threaten to crumble the foundation of her relationship with Alex and Maggie both.
