12th International Conference on the Short Story in English
June 27-30, 2012
North Little Rock, Arkansas
About the Program
This conference will bring together renowned writers of fiction in English (Irish, British, American, Canadian, Australian, Caribbean, South-African, Indian, Sri Lankan, Indonesian, etc.) with writers who have had (or will have for this event) their work translated into English and who will join in reading sessions, roundtable discussions and panels, and translation workshops.

The 12th International Conference on the Short Story in English will also host a number of sessions, both in the more traditional format (with presentation of papers) and in other formats involving performance, dance, art, films, etc., having in mind that the form of the short story is not necessarily confined to the limits of the written page but may open up to manifold fields of expression.
