Join us for the launch and celebration of Angel B.H.'s new book, All Hookers Go to Heaven.
Raised in a conservative Christian home in the East Coast of Canada, Mag is urged to preserve her purity at all costs. Desperate to secure her place in heaven, she rejects the hyper-sexual youth culture of her small town—until she falls for a magnetic, sophisticated girl while attending a program designed to usher young people into Evangelical Missionary work. Spiraling into shame and regret, Mag breaks away from the Church and launches herself into the world of sex for hire, attempting to shed her repressive past and become an anti-virgin—the antithesis of who she was raised to be.
This event will include readings and author Q&A. We'll also hear from an upcoming work from Jaime Burnet!
About the author: Angel B.H. grew up in Annapolis Valley, Nova Scotia. Her second birth was in a punk-lesbian bar in Montreal. She currently resides in Europe. She enjoys writing about sex work, Evangelical Christianity, and hopelessly complex friendships between women.
