Description

By the Next Pause by G. Barton-Sinkia In this powerful novel, Canadian author G. Barton-Sinkia explores the complexities of family, identity and community in 1970s Toronto. At its heart is the story of Pam Allen, who flees Jamaica with her infant daughter Simone, only to find herself facing new challenges when she's forced to take in a young girl she never knew. As two families from different backgrounds navigate their lives as single parents, they must confront their own biases and prejudices in order to coexist. But when a life-altering mistake sets their children on diverging paths, the makeshift family is left to pick up the pieces and find its way back together before it's too late. With its nuanced portrayal of Toronto's diverse communities, By the Next Pause is a moving exploration of what it means to belong and to be found.
