Join Milton Public Library, in Milton, Ontario, for an engaging discussion with 2021 Canada Reads long-listed Dirty Birds author Morgan Murray, about his fascinating protagonist: Milton Ontario. This is gonna be good!

In late 2007, as the world’s economy crumbles and Barack Obama ascends to the White House, the remarkably unremarkable Milton Ontario – not to be confused with Milton, Ontario – leaves his parents’ basement in Middle-of-Nowhere, Saskatchewan, and sets forth to find fame, fortune, and love in the Euro-lite electric sexuality of Montreal; to bask in the endless twenty-something Millennial adolescence of the Plateau; to escape the infinite flatness of Saskatchewan and find his messiah: Leonard Cohen.
