MY TORONTO, celebrated illustrator and editorial cartoonist Dušan Petričić presents a witty, multidimensional visual portrait of Canada's largest city...Toronto, Ontario, CANADA! Elbows UP Toronto, Go Blue Jays & Raptors!
Drawing on his personal experience after relocating from war-torn Yugoslavia in 1993, Petričić frames the 112-page collection through two distinct lenses: one eye trained to view the metropolis like a native Torontonian, and the other preserved as an observant outsider. Accompanied by an introduction from writer Rick Salutin, Petričić’s expressive pen-and-ink illustrations capture the city's architecture, history, neighborhoods, and everyday cultural quirks—offering readers a warm, humorous, and insightful look at life in Toronto.
