Granta 162: Loss

Edited by Sigrid Rausing

The UK’s most prestigious literary quarterly brings you prize-winning new fiction, reportage, memoir, poetry and photography from debut writers and established voices.

Our winter issue is themed around loss: losses emotional, physical and historical.

Roger Reeves visits the McLeod Plantation in Charleston, South Carolina, where he confronts the legacy of slavery in America.

Amitava Kumar shares his diaries from a recent trip to India, which reveal a nation struggling to find a common political language and confronting the reality of global warming.

While compiling a ‘schedule of loss’ for her insurers, Emily LaBarge revisits a hostage situation during a Christmas vacation to the Caribbean, and the post-traumatic stress that followed.

With more authors, poets and photographers to be confirmed.
