My new novel, THE O'BRIENS launches in the US this Tuesday, March 6, with a Pléaráca Leabhar at the Irish Arts Center, Hells Kitchen, NYC. 730pm . And that means book party.  Ticket info here.

I was profiled in the New York Times this week. You can find that here.

And on St Patrick's Day, Saturday March 17, at 6:00pm I'll be talking (about varieties of Irishness) and reading from THE O'BRIENS at Marfa Book Co., in Marfa Texas.

More events coming up in April and May in New England, New Brunswick, New York, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Toronto. The events list is up on my website.

At some of the  events I plan to show a few slides from my O'Brien family archive.
