Toronto, Little Italy. Stefania is a restoration architect with a gift she never chose - she sees what others cannot. Not metaphorically. Literally.When she begins work on a building on Via Margherita, she finds more than a structural anomaly. The measurements don’t add up. A room that shouldn’t exist. A thirty-seven centimeter discrepancy that no laser measure can explain. And presences - one by one - that have been held in place by a pact made in 1920, by a man named Carmelo who built walls around more than stone.Alongside her is Marco - methodical, precise, a man carrying something large that he hasn’t yet found the place to set down. And Rosa, an elderly woman who sits on a mustard-colored sofa and sees everything, says little, and has been waiting long enough to recognize the moment when it arrives.The Other Shore is a novel about the quality of things that stay. About what we carry and what we finally set down. About the people who wait long enough to see us arrive - and the smile they have when we do.A literary ghost story set in the heart of Toronto’s Italian community. Atmospheric, precise, quietly powerful.The Other Shore is the English translation of L’Altra Riva by KARMEN-ITA.
