Chez Moi: Lesbian Bar Stories from Before You Were Born

Tags: 
Description (in English): 

There were few social spots for women when the Chez Moi opened in Canada in 1984, and it marks a cusp moment in Toronto’s lesbian bar scene, as women moved from dark basements and women’s community centre dances to the above-ground Chez. But who can blame the fictional narrator of your walk along Hayden Street in search of both company and an elusive lesbian imaginary, for missing those basements more than just a bit?
