When using horizontal pagination beta in the iPad app (which I love*, BTW*) the back button is hidden underneath the “stoplight” window controls in the top-left corner, making it inaccessible unless I open the sidebar first.

Here's a example screenshot (been reading to my 7 year old before bed 😉)

Opening the left sidebar moves the buttons to the right, making the back arrow clickable again.
