Sackville House

By Paul Mason

In 1976, Michael Wycliffe-son of a troubled single mother-earns a scholarship to Trent University. Longing to escape his childhood and modest Ontario village, he is pulled into the luminous world of Colin, heir to immense wealth, whose confidence and ease seem to promise a different way of being. Their friendship unsettles and awakens Michael, granting him entry into realms of privilege that both enchant and estrange him. As he comes of age, desire and disillusionment shadow his steps-romance falters, friendships fracture, and the chasm between poverty and affluence widens with every choice he makes. Woven through his journey is a quiet but insistent inquiry into faith-its comforts, its contradictions-and a tender, searching exploration of sexuality and intimacy. A finely wrought portrait of a young man negotiating the fault lines of class, longing, and belief, Sackville House is a transformative novel where love and faith illuminate, and where the self is shaped in that fragile space between who we are and who we hope to become.
