My Thievery of the People: Ottawa Launch

April 22 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Join us for the Ottawa launch of My Thievery of the People, a short-story collection by former Ottawa resident Leila Marshy.

Marshy’s distinctive style and untamed strength guides the reader in an electrifying high-wire act through the inner lives of refugees, queers in love and grief, wives, workers, and so many others fighting their way out from under.

Leila Marshy is of Palestinian-Newfoundland parentage, which might explain a lot. She has worked for the Palestine Hospital in Cairo, the Palestinian Mental Health Association in Gaza, and Medical Aid for Palestine in Montreal. Her first novel, The Philistine, was published in 2018. She lives in Montreal.
