In recording the tale of the little man, through memories and Google searches, quotes from Rilke and hints of recipes from Madame Jehane Benoit, Toots gives a glimpse into a entire era of urban Canada, from Vancouver's Downtown Eastside, Main Street, and Chinatown, to a long-ago Montreal and its entertainment between the Great Depression and Expo 67."--back cover 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 650 0 $a Death $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Funeral rites and ceremonies $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Memorialization $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Obituaries $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Vancouver (B.C.) $v Fiction. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20201103021505.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D7F78562370411E887D7D95B97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
