Book review: A book like this is a great reminder that the good old days were only good for a very select few. If you were non-white, non-male, non-heterosexual, or even non-Protestant, Toronto in the late 1800s was not a place where you could expect fairness, much less justice.
Book review: The use of the words “in pieces” in the title serves to underscore the ways, as the author concludes, that “sanctuary as it has come to operate in the present — in the form of public declaration and high-profile media stories — is broken.”
