Set in the parklands of Manitoba and the lakes of Ontario, Sherrett’s debut novel covers thirty years in the lives of Gilbert, Christine and Wade Dubois, tracing the impact of divorce and Wade’s discovery of place and belonging within his family.“Sherrett brings such warmth and humanity to his characters, it’s almost startling to take into account the razor-sharp precision of his writing. This is an assured, captivating debut.”—Lynn Coady, author of Saints of Big Harbour
