Toronto Journal #5
Toronto Journal is a writing journal in print and sound, published twice a year. Each issue consists of short fiction from around the world and Toronto-centric non-fiction.
In this Issue: Issues #5's local history piece concerns George Copway, whose bestselling memoir, Recollections of a Forest Life, was the first book published by a Canadian First Nations. Our latest installment of Stories from the City – Humberto da Silva’s “Amália Aloud” – is a non-fiction piece set in 1960s East York. This issue’s fiction is a completely unsummarizable setlist featuring tracks from Chopin, Jeffrey Lewis, and DOA, plus a coke dealer, a grain bin, a Swiss Chalet last supper, dead (and “dead”) animals, a sticky substance of unknown origin, and Elizabeth Taylor’s hand.
