Item Description
An evening with National Book Award winner, Colum McCann.
You and 4 of your friends can enjoy an evening at The Bailey in the heart of New York's Financial District.
Colum McCann is the award-winning author of five novels and two collections of short stories. His most recent novel, “Let the Great World Spin,” won worldwide acclaim, including The 2009 National Book Award in the U.S, the 2010 Best Foreign Novel Award in China, the International Impac Award 2011, a literary award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, and several other major literary prizes.
“Let the Great World Spin” became a best-seller on four continents.
McCann’s fiction has been published in over 30 languages and has appeared in The New Yorker, Esquire, Paris Review, Granta, The Atlantic Monthly, GQ, Bomb and other places. He has written for numerous publications including The New York Times, the Irish Times, the Irish Independent, Die Zeit, La Republicca, Paris Match, the Guardian, the Times and the Independent.
McCann is considered, in every sense, an international artist. Born in Ireland, he has travelled extensively around the world. He and his wife Allison lived in Japan for eighteen months. He currently lives in New York City, where he holds dual Irish and American citizenship. He is a member of the Irish Academy, Aosdana, and was awarded a Chevalier des arts et lettres by the French government in fall 2009 (making him one of a exclusive number of foreign artists recognised in France for their literary contributions: other recipients have included Salman Rushdie, Phillip Gourevitch and Julian Barnes).
The exclusive American Academy honoured him with a literary award in May 2011.
The Bailey Pub & Brasserie is nestled in the heart of the Financial District on William and Wall Street. Partners Jason O’Brien, Katie Connolly, Donal Crosbie and Paul Moore have worked closely with renowned Irish designer Brian McDonald to create an ambience in which customers can savour fresh ingredients seasonally incorporated into the menu, enjoy craft beers and signature cocktails and browse through an eclectic wine list. Pairing elegance with comfort, this friendly environment is the ideal place to relax
