From Nobel laureates to debut novelists, international translations
to investigative journalism, each themed issue of "GrantaGranta"'s
"Best of Young" issues, released decade by decade, introduce the
most important voices of each generation - in Britain, America,
Brazil and Spain - and have been defining the contours of the
literary landscape since 1983. "Granta" does not have a political
or literary manifesto, but it does have a belief in the power and
urgency of the story and its supreme ability to describe,
illuminate and make real. As the "Observer" wrote of "Granta" "In
its blend of memoirs and photojournalism, and in its championing of
contemporary realist fiction, Granta has its face pressed firmly
against the window, determined to witness the world." Contributors
