Granta 97 by Ian Jack
This issue features new work by the twenty writers that Granta's judges - including novelists Edmund White and A.M. Homes - have selected as the most interesting new young voices in American fiction. Granta began its influential "Best of Young..." series with British novelists in 1983, repeated in 1993 and 2003. In 1996, Granta's first "Best of Young American Novelists" included Jeffrey Eugenides, Jonathan Franzen and Lorrie Moore. Who will match them in the new generation?
"* 'A cover-to-cover bargain' Time Out * 'Quite simply, the most impressive literary magazine of its time' Daily Telegraph * 'Every issue of Granta is met with pleasurable anticipation' TLS * 'Prestigious.. the oldest and most successful literary magazine in this country... Granta is committed to bringing together voices that cross boundaries... demonstrating the importance of a forum for new and experimental writing of all genres' Observer"
