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?
Ian Jack edited Granta from 1995 to 2007, having previously edited the Independent on Sunday. He has written on many subjects, including the Titanic, Kathleen Ferrier, the Hatfield train crash and the three members of the IRA active-service unit who were killed on Gibraltar. He is the editor of The Granta Book of Reportage and The Granta Book of India, and the author of a collection of journalism, The Country Formerly Known as Great Britain. He lives in London and now writes for the Guardian.
