2. What complex issue in your city could inspire a book?

Denison Avenue blends fiction and ink artwork to tell the story of Wong Cho Sum, a recent widow navigating life in Toronto’s gentrifying Chinatown. As she collects bottles to fill her days, she encounters grief, resilience, and the harsh realities facing Chinese Canadian elders. This poignant work is both a meditation on loss and a vivid portrait of a disappearing community. Denison Avenue will be available free in ebook and audiobook formats in Libby between November 4-18.

The city of Toronto and its gentrification are an important part of Denison Avenue. In the city where you live, what do you think is a complex issue that could also inspire a book?
