Joanne Proulx will be reading from her first novel, Anthem of A Reluctant Prophet (Viking Canada), at Hart House Library (7 Hart House Circle, 2nd floor), on Wednesday, January 30th at 4:00 p.m. Following the reading, there will be a discussion/question and answer period, as well as a small reception. Admission is free.
Luke Hunter, the protagonist of Anthem of A Reluctant Prophet, is an adolescent who can foresee the future.
"From a writerly point of view, Anthem of a Reluctant Prophet is a tour de force. Proulx's pitch-perfect recording of adolescent angst that is small-town, male and rooted in the most extraordinary circumstances... is impressive indeed." –The Ottawa Citizen.
