AMERICAN MOTHER; Author reading and signing with Colum McCann


About this Event

Join Barnes and Noble Old Orchard for an evening with author Colum McCann to celebrate the release of his new book with Diane Foley, American Mother. Readers are invited to listen to McCann read from the book and purchase an autographed copy. 

What does a mother say to the person responsible for kidnapping, torturing, and murdering her son? National Book Award-winning author Colum McCann channels Diane Foley’s voice as she tells her story, as the mother of American journalist Jim Foley – in search of answers, beyond justice, found through dogged, empathetic, spiritual enquiry.
