Mother Tongue Books opens a final chapter

June 19th, 2012 by Bob LeDrew

Mother Tongue Books has been part of Ottawa’s literary community since 1984.

But in a month, Mother Tongue Books will close its doors forever.

Ottawa Tonite sent Bob LeDrew to tell the story of a part of Ottawa’s literary life.

 

The first event in the Celebrate Mother Tongue series will feature Giller Prize-winning author Elizabeth Hay (Late Nights on Air, Alone in the Classroom) and Ottawa favorite singer-songwriter Jill Zmud.

The evening begins at 7:00 on Friday, June 22 at Mother Tongue, Bank at Sunnyside (across from the Mayfair).
