Last night we kicked off the BABEL season with none other than Brooklyn and Long Island author Colm Tóibín. Tóibín dazzled the audience with his humor, insight, and beautiful storytelling—a perfect start to the season!

“Here is what I know, we are all made of stories. And more than that, we are made of the stuff stories are made of, and more than that, we are made of the stuff that makes us want to tell stories.” Last night was deeply inspiring and insightful. Thank you to Tommy Orange, our audience and all of the people behind the scenes that make BABEL possible! We’ll see you in the spring for the next event.
