Wednesday, October 14 | 7 PM | The Saint John Arts Centre

Nicholas Herring, author of the Atwood Gibson Writers’ Trust Fiction Prize-winning Some Hellish, is back with his acclaimed, Giller-longlisted new novel Your Breath in Charcoal — and he’s stopping in Saint John for an evening of conversation brought to you by Fog Lit and the Lorenzo Society! Don’t miss this FREE event at the Saint John Arts Centre.

About Your Breath in Charcoal: Knickle is a young Islander with no friends, direction, or purpose in his life. When he drives to northern New Brunswick to pick up an acquaintance’s brother from a mental health hospital, the pair make a sudden decision to travel further west to try to find a life amidst the chaos of Upper Canada. In the big city of Tah-ron-ah for the first time, Knickle discovers love, hope, and profound loss.
