Writers from around the world convene in New York City to celebrate the written word in action. Engage with literature in bold and unexpected ways and discover how words can be amplified through music, theater, puppetry, film, and much more. Marking PEN American Center’s 90th anniversary, this year’s festival features performances, discussions, one-on-one conversations, and readings. For the complete schedule of the PEN World Voices Festival, which runs from April 30 to May 6, visit www.pen.org.

Best European Fiction
Following two years of sold-out events, the “Best European Fiction” program hosted by Aleksandar Hemon has become a staple of the PEN World Voices Festival.

This year the event returns with three new authors—Noëlle Revaz (Switzerland), Patrick Boltshauser (Liechtenstein), and Róbert Gál (Slovakia)—reading from their work, discussing their ideas about writing, and sharing their perspectives on what’s happening in literature in their parts of the world.

Co-sponsored by The School of Writing at The New School, Embassy of the Principality of Liechtenstein to the United States of America, Dalkey Archive Press, and Pro Helvetia, Swiss Arts Council.
