Author and filmmaker Paul Almond will launch The Pilgrim, the fourth novel in his Alford Saga, on September 12. After his experience as honorary president of the ImagiNation Writers’ Festival last April, Paul Almond concluded the Morrin Centre was the logical place to launch his book. The reading and book signing will start at 6 p.m. in this historic building located at 44, Chaussée des Écossais, in the heart of Old Quebec. Admission is free.

Appointed to the Order of Canada, Paul Almond received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Directors Guild of Canada in 2007, and has won numerous other awards for his films, documentaries and television series. In 1990, he turned to full-time fiction writing, and recently began publishing his Alford Saga series, a romantic adventure set in Quebec that spans 200 years of Quebec history.
