At our Fall Salon in New York, we gathered with friends and fellow Narrativos in the historic parlor of the Salmagundi Club. We toasted new friends and old and celebrated Narrative’s community of readers and writers, including the more than 2,500 authors in our free Library and the teachers and students throughout the United States and in more than sixty countries served by Narrative for Schools.
Hosted by author Jane Lancellotti, the Salon brought together Narrative cofounders and editors Carol Edgarian and Tom Jenks, 2025 Narrative Prize A. T. Steel, who read from his winning short story, and author Jennifer Egan. The videos below capture moments from the evening, including A. T. Steel reading an excerpt from his winning short story, “Honeybuns and Cream Soda in the Stairwell,” and Carol Edgarian in conversation with Jennifer Egan.
