About the Book

Joe Fiorito spent 18 hours in total, over the course of three days, on the corner of Victoria and Queen in downtown Toronto watching the city go by and recording what he saw. The rhythms of the city ebb and flow according to the time of day. The declarative sentence is the best brush to paint an objective portrait of the city we live in. It is an example of what happens when you stay put and observe a single place or thing for a very long time.

About the Author :
Joe Fiorito writes for the Toronto Star newspaper. He won Canadas National Newspaper Award for Columns in 1995. He is also the author of five books, including a best-selling memoir, The Closer We Are To Dying. His novel, The Song Beneath The Ice, won the City of Toronto Book Award in 2003. His most recent book, Union Station is an appreciation of Toronto, based in part on the city column he writes three times a week in Canadas largest circulation daily newspaper.

Review :
Warning to the reader: Dont waste your time trying to define the form Joe Fiorito uses to drag you into his world. Prose and poetry have existed as neighbours for centuries. Dont be certain you know Toronto just because youre Torontonian by birth or by address. Not until you read Rust Is a Form of Fire, a book from the man known as the mayor of the unknown Toronto, the man who goes into corners of the city that we never acknowledge and pretend not to see. And dont read this book if you arent ready to meet people next door youve never noticed before. Joe Fiorito, columnist of the citys daily life spanning two centuries, is looking to capture your heart and mind. But, if your aim is to know Toronto the way it truly is, then dont miss this book. Its poetry speaks more eloquently than any document. Final warning: Dont forget to pass this book to your neighbour. -- Goran Simic, author of Immigrant Blues, and Sprinting from the Graveyard
