Description

Sian Badich's A Shift in the City That Broke Us is contemporary fiction set in a fractured metropolitan environment, a city in decline. The story explores the social and emotional toll this takes on the people within it, and the way personal loss and systemic failure become tangled together.

The writing pays close attention to the atmosphere of the setting and the resilience of those who live there, so the city feels both pressing and enduring. This paperback, published in 2026 by JB Books & Co., suits readers who want fiction that looks closely at urban struggle and transformation.
