Ethan Canin

According to a book review in The New York Times, Professor Canin "has established a reputation for earnest, meticulously crafted stories and novels, naturalistic in method, elegiac in tone." Professor Canin will read a few scenes from his new novel, Carry Me Across the Water, which Kirkus Reviews recommends as a "richly detailed, intriguingly fragmented chronicle of the personal history and turbulent inner life of a prosperous German-American businessman…"
