Margo Dunn 1944-2025

Margo Dunn says, “If my bones show you my life, the vertebrae are the spines of books, etched with the accents aigoux of Montreal, the city of my youth. If my heart tells the story, it aches with love for and from friends, feminism, writing and performance. If my eyes review what they’ve seen – Women’s Studies’ students, Ariel Books’ customers, Angles and Xtra West readers, Prism and Outlook viewers stare back. My name says M is for mystery; A, for anger; R, reason; G, growth; and O, surprise. Q, quell surprise, is for queer.”
