New York state of mind

The Toronto Star checks in on McNally Robinson New York, and finds that manager Sarah McNally is displaying such books as Annabel Lyon’s The Best Thing for You and Richard B. Wright’s Clara Callan, and even has Margaret Atwood and Michael Ondaatje lined up for an appearance. (They’ll be promoting the Persea Books anthology Open Field: 30 Contemporary Canadian Poets.) “I was inspired by what my mother did,” McNally tells the Star‘s Judy Stoffman. “She has done so much for prairie literature (by selling the local authors). She’s a powerful woman, the most organized person I know.”
