The bookstore opened in 1973 as a dedicated space for LGBTQ+ and feminist publications. Over the decades it has moved several times, eventually establishing itself in the heart of Montreal's Gay Village.

The bookstore is easily accessible by public transit and has a clear layout that makes browsing straightforward. Plan to spend time exploring since the collection is organized by theme and regularly updated with new titles.

The store maintains partnerships with international feminist organizations to source books from authors whose voices are often overlooked by mainstream publishers. This commitment has made it a vital archive for perspectives that are hard to find elsewhere.
