The fifth annual National Book Awards at Concordia event with authors Colum McCann and Daniyal Mueenuddin, 2009 National Book Award winner and finalist in fiction respectively. Hosted by Minnesota Public Radio's Kerri Miller.

Colum McCann's novels have circled the globe, being published in 30 languages. His National Book Award-winning novel, Let the Great World Spin, depicts New York City in the 1970s and the pain, loveliness, mystery, and promise that make up the city. He teaches in the MFA Creative Writing program at Hunter College.

Daniyal Mueenuddin grew up in Pakistan with his American mother and Pakistani father until he was 13 years old. He then moved to the U.S., graduated from Yale Law School, and returned to Pakistan, where he lives today. His debut book, In Other Rooms, Other Wonders, draws on the strata of contemporary Pakistan. His stories have appeared in The New Yorker, Granta, Zoetrope, and The Best American Short Stories 2008, selected by Salman Rushdie.
