Granta 97 The Magazine of New Writing - USED Magazine Back Issues
Only 1 left in stockGranta 97 : Best of Young American Novelists 2
In 1996, Granta's first Best of Young American Novelists issue included Jeffrey Eugenides, Jonathan Franzen and Lorrie Moore. Who will match them in the new generation? This special issue features original work by the twenty-one writers under thirty-five who Granta’s judges (including novelists Edmund White and A.M. Holmes) have selected as the most interesting new young voices in American fiction.
Review
"Sets the literary agenda for a generation."
"They say the purpose of the list is to get people talking. It's certainly done that."
"Call it 'Twenty of the Best' and get on with it. Blare the trumpets and wake the readers."
"Best of Young American Novelists is full of good writing: personable, witty, sensitive, ironic."
"Granta's hit parade is refreshing and eclectic, chock-full of strong, immensely talented young writers."
"Granta's once-a-decade literary beauty contest has already raised some hackles, and not just among those who didn't make the cut."
"Will people be reading the magazine for the content or the controversy? Who knows? In any case, Granta deserves some kind of prize."
"Ranking writers like this is pointless; it looks like a publicity stunt. But read 'em and reap: Granta has produced a handy guide to some of the best current American Fiction." -

Granta 83 The Magazine of New Writing - USED Magazine Back Issues
Only 1 left in stockGranta 83: This Overheating World
Not so much the state we're in as the mess we're getting into. The world we were born into has gone. We shall never completely recapture its climate, its seasons, the way its plants grew and its animals lived. This is not a wild-eyed prediction, a man on the street with a placard. Respectable science knows it and says it. Nine of the world's ten warmest years since records were kept have occurred in the past fourteen years. Every month, an English garden moves south, climatically, by a distance of one hundred yards. Who is responsible? We are our habits. Can we prevent it? Too late. Can we moderate it, slow it, reverse it? Yes- if we try. This issue of Granta contains reports from the frontiers of environment change. Contributors include: Marion Botsford-Fraser; James Hamilton-Paterson; Matthew Hart; Thomas Keneally; Philip Marsden; Bill McKibben; Wayne McLennan; Christopher de Bellaigue; James Meek; and Nuha al-Radi in Iraq. There is new fiction from Maarten 't Hart and Jon McGregor, and a picture essay by Edward Burtynsky on our industrial landscapes.
