The Westmount Public Library conversation between author Linda Leith and host Shelley Pomerance now on YouTube.

“How modern book retailing was invented here in Montreal. Linda Leith — founder of Blue Metropolis, author, and publisher — gave insight to the number of literary communities in various different languages in Montreal. The level of creativity and vibrancy is inspiring. Quite naturally, it produced great writers.” — Ian Ostroff, The Suburban, May 11, 2021

“This is what an artist is…. this is what constitutes a literary life, and it really is still subversive for a woman to stand up and assert such a thing for herself. To so fully own her story, and to dare to write her name on things.” — Kerry Clare, May 3, 2021
