Granta's new issue: WORK
Granta editor John Freeman kicks off the New Year by introducing the upcoming issue of the magazine, which will be published on 15th January. The issue is based around the theme of WORK - which he says has become conspicuously absent from literature. Here he talks about pieces by Salman Rushdie, Aminatta Forna, Yiyun Li, Julian Barnes, Colum McCann and others keen to ruminate on one of the most important and unavoidable aspects of our lives.

Looks fab. Have read the piece on book piracy and found it fascinating. Congrats. Happy New Year Granta! Great site too.

Brad Watson's story goes from a dead end family to the fullness of life. Great!

A few issues back, the editorial note said there would be no more editorial notes and also, if I'm not misrememembering- no more theme issues. Am glad Granta is still doing themes, and am happy to discover the online, Video Intro to this Work issue. Wouldn't it make sense to transcribe what is said in the video, put it in the beginning of the print issue- and reference the Print version readers to the online website (to see the video and online website)?
