Give Me Some Truth

Acclaimed author and Professor Eric Gansworth reads from his newest novel on September 11

“Sometimes hilarious, sometimes heartbreaking, always heartfelt.”  That’s just one of the many complimentary reviews of Eric Gansworth’s newest novel Give Me Some Truth.

The acclaimed author and professor of English will read from his latest work on Tuesday, September 11 at 7:00 p.m. in the Grupp Fireside Lounge.  The event is free and open to the campus community. Paintings, included in the novel, will be on display at the event.  Audience members who purchase the book at Talking Leaves or at the Canisius event will also qualify to enter a drawing for an original Eric Gansworth painting inspired by the novel.

Give Me Some Truth is a follow up to Gansworth’s first young adult novel, If I Ever Get Out of Here.  The story returns to the Tuscarora Nation reservation where high school senior Carson Mastick reasons that, if he can get a band together, he can win the local Battle of the Bands and get off the reservation.

Give Me Some Truth is Gansworth’s 11th book.
