Since 1979 Granta has published the best new writing four times a year. Each themed issue contains fiction, memoir, poetry and photography from the brightest emerging talents and finest authors on the planet.
Alongside this the online edition, New Writing, runs daily exclusives, including stories, poems, essays, interviews, animations and more from a host of Granta luminaries as well as new voices.
Our Online Archive reaches back to the very first issues, which reshaped the literary landscape, and can be accessed by a yearly subcription.
