Of the 5 references posted above by Patar above, at least two meet these criteria. https://torontoist.com/2014/01/book-city-closes-a-chapter/ The torontoist.com article, while relying on some quotes from the owner in relation to the announcement on shutting down, also provides a history of the store with plenty of independent analysis and commentary.
