A great love comes with bells…

Flip is an unemployed writer with a heart of gold and limited social skills — he’s also very much in love. And you? You’re invited to witness the carnage… .

It’s a story we’re all familiar with: just as the right girl finally comes along, Flip’s leg is broken, his roommate has gone nuts, and his father’s threatening to cut him off by cancelling his credit cards… . And then there’s that other small matter — he's still in love with Belle, the ghost he met when he was eight.

Thank God he’s well taken care of — how does anyone manage this kind of thing alone?

Daccia Bloomfield’s Dora Borealis is a not-quite-coming-of-age novel and a good old-fashioned love letter written in the era of the open relationship. Set against the backdrop of Toronto's insular art scene (itself haunted by the ghost of meaning), this story about connection (in a town hooked on missed connections) explores what it means to be truly haunted.

Industry Reviews

"The Toronto of Findley and Davies is long gone. I've been waiting my entire life for a book to reflect the Toronto that I know and love. This is that book." --Christian Lander, author, "Stuff White People Like"
