Elizabeth McCracken

Following our ‘Music and Memory’ event, part of the launch of Granta 111: Going Back, we have been asking writers to choose five songs or pieces of music which are important to them, and which bring back particularly salient memories.

Elizabeth McCracken

1. The Flying Burrito Brothers: ‘Hot Burrito #1’
2. Judy Garland: ‘The Man That Got Away’
3. Johnny Cash: ‘I Still Miss Someone’
4. Frank Sinatra: ‘The Way You Look Tonight’
5. Kathy Mattea: ‘Where Have You Been’

In the second Granta podcast, Elizabeth McCracken discusses her life as a writer and reads from her story ‘Property’, which appears in Granta 111: Going Back.
