  Granta magazine publishes the best of fiction, memoir, reportage and photography, Every issue of Granta is in print and many issues - such as 'Travel', 'Dirty Realism', 'The Family', 'India' and 'Unbelievable' - are classics. Granta only publishes work that has never been published anywhere before. So anyone reading us would have discovered (among others) Bill Bryson, Hanif Kureishi, Louis de Bernieres, Arundhati Roy and Zadie Smith - long before anyone else. Every issue of Granta is special. That's why it's published four times a year - to keep it that way.

  A fiction special, introducing two new authors. Gary Shteyngart is not yet 30. His story, Several Anecdotes About My Wife , is a funny and scurrilous account of a young Russian immigrant's disastrous marriage to a native New Yorker. Jon McGregor works as washer-up in a Nottingham restaurant. His story Jonas is a lyrical and disturbing account of a mysterious death in the Anglian fens. This edition also includes new short stories by Rachel Cusk, Edmund White and Jonathan Ley. Other features include: Arthur Miller remembers his life at the Chelsea Hotel, with Brendan Behan and Dylan Thomas; Rory Stewart among the dervishes in Pakistan; Aleksander Hemon's return to Sarajevo; and a photographic essay by Deirdra O'Callaghan on the lost souls of Camden Town.
