Memories of the Beach

Join author, speaker and teacher Lorraine Williams for a presentation of Memories of the Beach: Reflections on a Toronto Childhood. She will be reading and showing pictures from the book at Markham Baptist Church, 110 Church Street, Markham, Ontario, on Wednesday, October 12.

Here's what Lorraine had to share about the book in an interview with Defining Canada:

In the Dirty Thirties, Toronto’s Beach community has somehow managed to distance itself from the rest of the city, and even from the world. This quirky and enchanted community provided a protective base of beauty and calm during the madness about to be unleashed by World War II. And in the process, it fostered the creative genius of a Glenn Gould, a Norman Jewison and a Doris McCarthy. In this first published memoir of growing up at the Beach, I detail life at the Beach in the ‘30’s and 40’s from the vantage point of my home – the only house directly abutting the boardwalk and situated on the former site of a popular and elegant amusement park. From my front veranda, the boardwalk served as a moving panorama of the history and distinct ambience of the Beach.
