Coach House

Remembering Paul Quarrington

Paul Quarrington, the musician and award-winning Toronto author of Whale Music, King Leary and, most recently, The Ravine has died. He was 56.

Quarrington, who was diagnosed with an advanced form of lung cancer last year, passed away on the morning of January 21, 2010.

Quarrington first published with Coach House in the late 70s. Coach House published and printed the Toronto author's first novel, The Service, in 1978.

Coach House is now solar-powered

... well, partially.

In 2008, solar panels were installed on the rooftop of Coach House Press. And the panels provide partial power for the building.

You can keep track of how much money Coach House is saving in electricity conservation at the SolarVu Coach House site.

The Varsity profiles Coach House

Upon the purchase of the Coach House, Coach House Press was profiled in The Varsity, the University of Toronto's student paper. Journalist Charlotte Tombs spoke to head coach Stan Bevington and senior editor Alana Wilcox about the publishing house, located on the U of T campus.
