International PEN Festival of World Literature

Not sure when this was actually announced, but the most recent International PEN Newsletter (which yes, arrived last week, but we’re still taking it a bit easy here . . . ) has a mention of the International PEN Festival of World Literature scheduled for April 11-13 in London.

The festival—which seems to be a small-scale PEN World Voices—will consist of twelve events on London’s south bank, and will take place the weekend leading into the London Book Fair.

As soon as details are announced, we’ll pass them along. This sounds really promising. And another good reason to go to London for the book fair . . .
