Moving Forward Sideways Like a Crab A Novel
Jonathan was nine when his mother Sid vanished from his life and it was not until he was a promising writer when he finally reconnected with his beloved parent. But the woman he'd known as "Sid" had morphed into an elegant man named Sydney. In the decade following this discovery, Jonathan made regular pilgrimages from Toronto to visit Sydney, who now lived quietly in his native Trinidad. And on each visit, Jonathan struggled to overcome his confusion and anger at the choices Sydney had made, trying with increasing desperation to rediscover the parent he'd once adored inside this familiar stranger.
