Super: A Novel
English 1 edition
What does it mean to chase a dream across oceans, only to find its edges fraying on arrival? When Sukhpreet Gill thinks of Canada, he imagines a future of promise and prosperity, a life of sprawling townhouses and easy money. It is a vision that propels him to mortgage family land, leave Jalandhar and the girl he loves, and make his way to a country that isn’t ready to accept him. On the other side of the world, Maynard Wilson is coming to terms with a nation that has nothing left to offer Canadians like him. Unemployed, with maxed-out credit cards and no savings, he risks being evicted from his rented apartment. When his path intersects with Sukhpreet’s, the collision has terrible consequences. Tender and heartfelt, award-winning writer Lindsay Pereira’s most ambitious novel yet is an unforgettable exploration of immigration, identity, and the intense yearning for a better life – along with the often-devastating cost that comes with it.
