The schedule for the 2013 PEN World Voices Festival has been announced with quite an impressive lineup this year.
Monkey Business International returns with volume 3 of the acclaimed English-language anthology of newly translated Japanese writing and two events at the festival—a cabaret at Joe’s Pub on May 1st and a conversation at Asia Society—as well as a launch party hosted by A Public Space.
Participating authors include Paul Auster, Kevin Brockmeier, Mina Ishikawa, Charles Simic, and Gen’ichiro Takahashi, who will join editors Motoyuki Shibata and Ted Goossen and host Roland Kelts.
