Poring over 1400 images of exotic cultural practices might turn you into a more open-minded citizen of the world... or maybe just an ethnographic voyeur in an armchair.
The Monkey's Paw is Toronto's most idiosyncratic secondhand bookshop.
In our window display on Dundas St. West, we strive to startle passersby with an improbable diversity of printed artifacts.
For bibliophiles unable to visit us weekly, we have created this site: a sampling of our stock, with an emphasis on the unusual and the recently acquired.
