Following the success of its first season, Writers Unbound will be back for seconds starting Tuesday, May 31 on MAtv, the community channel operated by cable provider, Vidéotron.
Santos, who is married with two children and lives in NDG, released his book
Ghost Face in fall of 2020, and it was published by Montreal press DC Books. Itâs his third book in this DC Booksâ collection, but heâs published other smaller collections. Previously published titles include
Blackbirds (2018),
The Emperorâs Sofa (2010).
âGhost Face is a poetic memoir and touches on my background which is of Cambodian descent,â he explained. âI was adopted as an infant. My parents are Canadian, but they were Portuguese and Spanish immigrants themselves, so growing up I very much identified with being Canadian, Portuguese and Spanish, but I didnât know much about my Asian heritage.â
Joining the roster of English programming on MAtv, the community channel operated by Quebec’s main cable provider, Vidéotron, is Writers Unbound, a new series hosted by Shelley Pomerance.
