Enough
Three Iranian women from different generations working at Toronto City Hall respond to institutional racism while the city champions inclusion.
You can't win a race you’re kept from running.
Set amid the cubicles and courtyards of Toronto City Hall, Kimia Eslah's third novel centres on three women of colour navigating labyrinths at work, in love, and in life. Faiza Hosseini is a cutthroat executive with a proven record - she knows she's enough, but can she circumvent the old boys’ club? Sameera Jahani is passionate about equity but her girlfriend isn't - can she bridge this gap, or has she had enough? Goldie Sheer has triumphantly landed her first job, but unexpected work drama makes her question - is she really enough?
With grace and insight, Eslah bares three women's experiences of structural discrimination, from microaggressions to corruption.
Enough is an empathetic missive to anyone working on equity, diversity, and inclusion - in cubicles, courtyards, and countless other spaces.
