5.0 out of 5 stars Investigative journalism, essays and fiction, December 20, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Granta magazine is published quarterly and frequently contains writing, both nonfiction and fiction, of real excellence and importance. I am not a subscriber; rather I pick up those issues that contain articles of particular interest to me. Many issues of Granta are "themed" - the theme of this issue is "Fathers".

Detailed contents of this issue:

- David Goldblatt: Doing the Paperwork, the author faces up to his father's violent death

- Benjamin Markovits on high-school sports, Texan-style

- Francesca Segal: In my Fathers Footsteps, the author looks for the Brooklyn of her father's youth

- Ruchir Joshi recalls the many faces of Puppa

- Siri Hustvedt: My Father Myself, on the anxiety of influence and the nature of fatherhood

- Michael Bywater wonders if friendship is women's work

- Writers on photographs of their fathers: Alison Bechdel, Olga Grushin, David Heatley, Reina James, Jonathan Lethem, Adam Mars-Jones, Jon McGregor, Joseph O'Neill and Ali Smith

- Kevin Cummins photographs the Runcorn Wrestling Academy and John Naughton gets in the ring

- Fiction by Emma Donoghue, Kirsty Gunn, James Lasdun, Daniyal Mueenuddin and Justin Torres

- Poetry by Paul Farley and Will Self's fetish object
