Desperate to find a way to change their fates, David Tabé places a phone call halfway around the world to the Stewarts, a family bound to his own through a fraught connection in the distant past—their ancestors met on the island two hundred years earlier, with calamitous results. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Toronto, the Stewarts are themselves locked in mourning after the accidental drowning of their youngest son. When Michelle Stewart receives David’s invitation to participate in a reconciliation ceremony to put the spirits of their respective ancestors to rest, she accepts in a desperate effort to save herself and her family. As the ceremony approaches, the Tabés and the Stewarts will uncover their shared losses and failings, their fragile hopes for what a better future might hold, and the wounds that stand in the way of freeing themselves from the legacy of past betrayals.     \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHeart-wrenching, thought-provoking, and morally complex, \u003ci\u003eThe Sea Between Two Shores\u003c\/i\u003e immerses us in the lives of two families connected as much by their desire for healing as by the actions of their ancestors. It is an extraordinary meditation on the complications of history, the possibilities for redemption, and the meaning of the stories we tell ourselves.","brand":"McClelland \u0026 Stewart","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44210396561663,"sku":"9780771076404","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780771076404_s600x595.jpg?v=1775587512","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9780771076404","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
