Korean author Bae Su-ah has been invited to the PEN World Voices Festival, an annual literary festival underway in New York, LTI Korea said.   Bae is one of about 150 writers from 30 countries who have been invited to the weeklong event, which celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. Two other Korean writers, Hwang Sok-yong and Kim Young-ha, participated in the festival in 2009 and 2011, respectively.   During the festival, Bae will read excerpts from her short story “Highway with Green Apples.” It was translated into English and published in “Day One,” Amazon’s digital literary journal dedicated to short fiction and poetry by emerging writers and translations of non-English literature, in December. She will also read excerpts from her 1998 novel “Cheolsu.”
