Bring Me Into the Light
In the wreckage of 1930s Berlin, silence was survival. In 1950s Toronto, it's a prison. Toronto, 1951. For Anna, the glass-fronted shops and bustling streetcars of postwar Toronto are merely a fresh coat of paint on a haunted house. She has spent years meticulously burying her past beneath the city's polite rhythms, convinced that what is lost to the rubble stays there. She has survived by becoming a stranger to herself, until a chance meeting unearths the one thing she wasn't prepared to find: her sister, Gerta, is alive.
But the girl who once skipped over Berlin cobblestones has been replaced by a woman hollowed out by the same shadows Anna tried to outrun. As the sisters reunite, the carefully constructed facade of Anna's new life begins to crack. To find their way back to one another, they must excavate the secrets they kept to stay alive, secrets that now threaten to pull them back into the dark. Moving between the atmospheric tension of prewar Germany and the burgeoning landscape of mid-century Toronto, Bring Me Into the Light is a visceral exploration of the archaeology of memory.
It is a story of how we survive the unthinkable, and the courage it takes to finally speak the truth.
