An Independent Bookseller's Ode to John Irving
     
F
One of the greatest delights in serving as the president of the New England Independent Booksellers Association (NEIBA) is the privilege of selecting the recipient of the President’s Award, which is given to a New England author for lifetime achievement in arts and letters. We are fortunate in this part of the country to have an abundance of outstanding authors from whom to choose, but there are few whose roots and writings are so thoroughly of New England as John Irving.
