The retired principal of Canterbury College, Donald H. Hull, will read from—and sign copies of—his new novel during a launch event Saturday, April 23, in the Church of the Ascension parish hall, 1385 University Avenue West.

An Anglican priest, Dr. Hull taught courses in the New Testament to students pursuing degrees in theology and religious studies until his retirement in 2008. His debut novel, Tangleville: Just About Any Town, Anywhere, invites Christians and secularists alike to re-think their commitment to the teachings of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

The launch event runs 2 to 4 p.m., with a reading at 2:30 p.m. Books will be available for purchase at a special price.
