THE HIGHRISE
A long-form story collection by KAROLIN GOLD—built for slow reading, sharp scenes, and the quiet pressure of city height.
Overview
What this book is
HIGHRISE is a sequence of chapters designed to be read online—each one a self-contained movement that also pushes the larger arc forward.
This page is a landing place: a short orientation, a visual mood, and quick links to every chapter. Russian text can be added later without changing the structure.
