Alice McDermott “is a genius of quiet observation,” said the Los Angeles Times. “One of our finest novelists.” McDermott’s books include Charming Billy, winner of the National Book Award, and After This. On January 30 of this year, she appeared at the Y for the Afternoon Night Table Series hosted by the award-winning journalist, essayist and television commentator Roger Rosenblatt. Later in the evening, she led a master class in fiction. In the audio clip below, she explains her passion for teaching - besides the money, of course.
The full program will be broadcast on the weekly From New York’s 92nd Street Y program this Saturday at 7, 8 and 9AM ET on the SIRIUS STARS Channel. If you're not a subscriber, go to www.sirius.com/freetrial for a 3 day free trial.
Join Garrison Keillor and Roger Rosenblatt on April 9 for the last Afternoon Night Table event of the season.
