    I have drifted away from Granta and this Chicago issue will bring me back to your stellar publication. Thank you.

    The consistent quality of the writing in this issue make it a winner. If it were an album then the editors have a hit on their hands and it will go straight to Number 1 'with a bullet'.

    As a native Chicagoan and southsider now moved west to Oregon, and as a late blooming aspiring writer with a novel in progress set in Chicago, I look forward to reading this issue. (In my college years I feasted on James T. Farrell: I was homesick. Perhaps this collection will do much to keep my lovers' quarrel with the city alive.)

    My daughter bought my subscription last Christmas.
    I usually don't read every story in each edition I get.
    I did read all the stories in this one and it was really enjoyable.
    Also the cover is stunning.
