A Celebration of Muriel Spark

ISSUE Project Room and New Directions present an evening of anecdotes and admiration celebrating the life and work of Muriel Spark, featuring New Directions President and Publisher Barbara Epler, New York Times Columnist Maud Newton, Paris Review Contributing Editor Sadie Stein, T Magazine Senior Editor and former Harper's Editor Emily Stokes, and Vogue.com Culture Editor Thessaly LaForce. New Directions' Publicity Director and Associate Editor Michael Barron moderates.

The writer Muriel Spark (1918-2006) has been lauded as having written "some of the best sentences in the English" (The New Yorker) and being "The most original and brilliant British novelist" (The New York Review of Books). This month, Spark's longtime publisher New Directions will shine back the limelight on her amazing body of work by publishing the first ever collection of her essays, The Informed Air, as well as reissuing eight of her novels.
