Granta 139
Granta 139: Best of Young American Novelists | Sigrid Rausing
3 posts | 1 read | 1 to read
Once every ten years Granta publishes a list of the twenty best American fiction writers under the age of forty. In 1997 and 2007 we picked out such luminaries as Daniel Alarcon, Edwidge Danticat, Anthony Doerr, Jeffrey Eugenides, Jonathan Safran Foer, Jonathan Franzen, Nell Freudenberger, Nicole Krauss, Lorrie Moore, Yiyun Li, Karen Russell, Akhil Sharma and Gary Shteyngart. This issue distills the preoccupations of another generation; a selection of writers you will be hearing more from, chosen by panel of judges who are themselves acclaimed writers: Patrick deWitt, A.M. Homes, Kelly Link, Ben Marcus and Sigrid Rausing.

I'm just getting to last quarters Granta, the Best Young American Novelists issue, and it's great! If you've been wondering which of these guys you've heard tons about to try out, you can decide for yourself with a 10-page story from each!

ValerieAndBooks I have that Granta (edit: young novelists issue) from 1997. Kind of a time capsule!! (edited) 7y

I guess technically this is a "magazine haul"? Made a little trip to Barnes & Noble today. :-)
