It is in your face, it’s topical, it is a collection of new writers and writers who are on the edge. It is unusual and challenging and it is doing as it has always done – placed issues firmly in the forefront of the reader who cares to discover a little more than just surface substance.

Granta is a collection of stories – largely or totally based in feminism, for this offering, written by noted writers, up and coming writers and writers who simply excel at the less is more theory – as illustrated in the piece Gentleman by Eudora Welty and the poem Inheritance offered by Sadaf Halai.

Longer pieces coupled with much shorter segments keep your mind alert to expect the unexpected.

 

Granta is alternative entertainment and entertainment to challenge, rather than to relax. It should be taken for what it represents – differing views from different people on some of the building blocks of society. Informative and enjoyable, despite efforts in some stories to be otherwise.
