May the Road Rise Up to Meet You: Ireland and the Nurturance of Its Writers

A panel discussion with authors Sara Baume, Belinda McKeon, and Colm Tóibín, moderated by Ethan Nosowsky, at the Bay Area Book Festival.

For a small country, Ireland has a major impact on world literature, and writing is a laudable endeavor among those green hills. In this session, a well-established author meets with two young but acclaimed novelists to discuss how they became writers and what their homeland had to do with it. This session is a tribute to the Irish students who died or were injured in the Berkeley balcony collapse one year ago. Introduced by Philip Grant, Consul General of Ireland in San Francisco, and Berkeley's Mayor Tom Bates.
