“Around her the world stopped. Everything other than life and death dissolved in the background. In that moment, it was only her touching the pale, waxen skin of a relative stranger.”
Lisa Bush, City Hall

“Pilar peered out her window at the barren foothills shroud in mist and shadows cast by low-lying clouds. Bits of brush and the grey skeletons of dormant plants protruded from mounds of snow. A Canadian Pacific train, the colour of rust, slowly ran parallel to the highway.”
Lisa Bush, City Hall

“Night cloaked the sky. Venus hovered overhead surrounded by traces of stars. The temperature must have dropped, as tears stung Ada’s eyes. She wiped them away with a bare hand. She hadn’t bothered with her gloves or her hood. There was no need to. As Ada navigated across the cul-de-sac, towards her home, silhouetted against the night, she felt no cold. She felt nothing at all.”
