PEN World Voices Festival 2010
by Habitus · 04/21/10
Here at Habitus we’re excited about next week’s PEN World Voices Festival of International Literature. Among the more than 150 participants speaking and reading at some 50 events around New York City you’ll find Habitus friends and contributors Ariel Dorfman, Arnon Grunberg (who’s lately been doing some blogging for PEN), Rodrigo Fresán and Aleksandar Hemon. While the entire festival is always intriguing, Habitus readers might be interested in a panel on war writing and reportage, with Grunberg and Philip Gourevitch; a discussion of the recent biography and graphic novel about the life of Anne Frank, and a conversation between Ariel Dorfman and Gabriel Sanders, and readings from Sasha Hemon’s new anthology of the Best European Fiction. We’re also looking forward, naturally, to the panel on literary magazines around the world, which includes our contributor Rodrigo Fresán.
