Floating Shore

by Sally Ito

Price: $18.95

In the emotional and social distance between emigration and real arrival, between travel and understanding the place one visits, is the floating shore of identity. The stories in Sally Ito’s book explore, from different angles and perspectives, the newness of arrival, and how it can alter personality, vision and lives. Ito’s vision is beautiful and commanding, and her writing is moving and honest.
