barnesandnoble.com Launches New Monthly Feature
With "An Evening With Frank and Malachy McCourt"
The Series Showcases Sights and Sounds of Exclusive Monthly Author Readings
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--January 11, 1999-- barnesandnoble.com continues to expand its offerings for the online booklover with the launch of ''An Evening with...'', a monthly segment featuring readings by today's most significant authors. The series also includes photographs and exclusive interviews with the authors. The feature, which begins today, hosts the irrepressible, best-selling McCourt brothers, Frank and Malachy. In February, the barnesandnoble.com ''An Evening With...'' program will feature four National Book Award winners: Alice McDermott, Louis Sachar, Edward Ball, and Gerald Stern and their works.
''We're excited to bring the sound, imagery and personality of today's most significant authors to online booklovers. In the past, we had readings by Tom Wolfe, P. J. O'Rourke and Jon Stewart. With the launch of 'An Evening with...' we can share the magic of other authors on a regular basis with millions of people each month. Author readings are a critical element in creating a personal literary community online and continuing our evolution as the premiere bookselling Web site,'' commented Melissa Roberson, vice president and executive editor, barnesandnoble.com.
''An Evening with Frank and Malachy McCourt,'' exclusive to barnesandnoble.com, features Malachy McCourt reading a selection from A Monk Swimming that culminates with his account of streaking through a snooty Manhattan restaurant. Frank McCourt will read several riotous selections from Angela's Ashes, including his grade-school essay ''Jesus and the Weather.''
barnesandnoble.com shoppers can also hear the two brothers perform a skit from their off-Broadway show ''A Couple of Blaguards'' and participate in an audience sing-along. Written transcripts of exclusive interviews with both McCourts are also included.
While ''An Evening with...'' is new to barnesandnoble.com, online author chats have been integral to the site since its launch.
There are three to five live chats scheduled in the barnesandnoble.com Auditorium each week. For browsers who missed these chats, transcripts of the appearance are archived on the site. Over 600 author transcripts are currently posted, searchable by author.
