These Truths

by

These Truths brings the writers and artists of the 2020 PEN World Voices Festival right into your home. Each week, writers from America’s premier international literary festival will explore works that wrestle with contested history, challenge the fabrications served to us on an almost daily basis, and awaken us to the beauty and power of storytelling. When the factual basis of our daily lives is constantly undermined, this podcast explores how literature can help us arrive at the truth and a deeper understanding of what connects us.
