Come meet New York Times bestselling novelist Frank Delaney, author of Ireland, Tipperary, Shannon and Simple Courage: A True Story of Peril on the Sea. Delaney is a former judge for the Man Booker Prize and enjoyed a prominent career in BBC broadcasting before becoming a full-time writer. He was born in Tipperary, Ireland, but now lives in New York City and Connecticut. Delaney has been called “The most eloquent man in the world” by NPR’s Scott Simon.
In Venetia Kelly’s Traveling Show (Random House, Feb 23, 2010, $26), Delaney weaves “Irish vaudeville and politics of the 1930s into a mix both delightful and astonishing…” according to AudioFile Magazine.
