What’s Going On at the 92nd St. Y?
A request for a press pass from one of GalleyCat‘s regular correspondents reminded me to take a look at the 2008 schedule for the 92nd Street Y to see if there were any good readings coming up. Good thing, too, or I wouldn’t have heard about tonight’s pairing of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and Dave Eggers, both of whom were nominated for the National Book Critics Circle fiction prize in 2006 (which ultimately went to Kiran Desai). Later in the month, Roddy Doyle will meet A.L. Kennedy, Franz Wright will read with Li-Young Lee, and the biographer’s brunch series will resume with Arnold Rampersad talking about Ralph Ellison.
Their National Poetry Month plans look pretty cool, too. On March 31, Paul Muldoon is going to host a reading with Emily Fragos, Matthea Harvey, and Brenda Shaughnessy, followed a few days later by Wendy Salinger and former British poet laureate Andrew Motion (both of whom, as it happens, are also accomplished memoirists).
