Ten years later, where are we looking? How do we see things differently?

From Ground Zero to Kampala to London to Mumbai, the echoes are still heard, the impact is still felt. The way we interact, the way we travel, our relationship to media and technology, and the very way we regard the world we live in have all been irrevocably changed.

Granta 116 will examine the consequences of the attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, from a global perspective. Rather than recounting where we were when it happened and what we saw, this issue will look at how our lives and viewpoints have been altered since that day.

Declan Walsh reports from the tribal areas of northwest Pakistan: breeding ground for al-Qaeda and current target of U.S. drone strikes. Elliott Woods travels across the U.S., talking to recruits, noncombatants and veterans and taking the pulse of a nation a decade at war. Pico Iyer considers what air travel is like in the post-9/11 security state; Nicole Krauss writes a melancholy, impressionistic portrait of family, war, life and death in Paris. The issue also includes fiction from newcomers Kathryn Kuitenbrouwer and Phil Klay as well as an extract of a new novel by Nuruddin Farah about a man who travels to Somalia in search of his son who has joined the jihadist movement.

Showcasing some of the most insightful essayists, fiction writers, poets and visual artists working today, Ten Years Later will explore the complexity of how we regard an event that forever shifted our conceptions of fear, anger and hope.

Amazing stories in the aftermath of 9/11. I think every American should at least read the story by Phil Klay, a U.S. Marine who found himself struggling to adjust to civilian life after months in Iraq. We're all paying for this disaster of a war, but it's so easy to just ignore the consequences if we don't have a loved one over there fighting. As the other reviewers have made clear, it's not just a collection of war stories, and the perspective is international. I'm recommending it to everyone I know, hawks and doves alike.

Fiction is ogten more truthful than...

Relevant. At times gut-wrenching in its honesty (and simplicity)--adage to fiction is the TRUE depiction of history. The writing is not always excellent--and hence the 4 stars--but it is definitely relevant to our understanding of a horrendous event and how it changed so many lives in so many ways. Some stories are excellent, some not so--what you would expect from any anthology.

Awesome, diverse collection of reports and stories

Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2011

I simply cannot believe that I am the first person to review this awesome collection. It reflects on the aftermath, 10 years later, of 9/11 in the prime targets for revenge, Iraq and Afghanistan and explores the Arab Spring, airline security and Somalia. Some stories are about and by US army veterans trying to reintegrate back home. Some regret having gone, others feel they do not fit in today's US, miss the old comradeship and want to return to battle.
War victims are also given space. Afghan warlords reacted quickly to offers of $5.000 for any Taliban caught, condemning many innocent men to a long stay in Guantanamo after being tortured elsewhere. A Moroccan, UK-based cook states his case after suffering 3 years of solitary confinement there. So does his lawyer, who explains his client is bi-polar and was temping in a Chelsea restaurant at the time of his alleged crimes in Afghanistan. But it was there where his client was captured, so...
Nuruddin Farah's story is an extract from his new novel "Crossbones" in which a Minnesota-based Somali exile begins a search for his son. The father fears he has joined the extremist Shabaab in a Somalia he has trouble understanding or surviving once he arrives.

Anthony Shadid provides a history of the once nation-building, now defunct Baghdad College, established in 1932 by US Jesuits, using its yearbooks and interviews with surviving staff and students as source material. Amazing piece of history.

Tahar Ben Jelloun portrays with great empathy the poor Tunisian fruit seller's state of mind before setting himself on fire, which sparked the Arab Spring and pays respect to an unknown Egyptian, picked up because the police needed a quick confession from someone for something. He died within hours. Two examples of callousness by Arab regimes' poorly-paid police forces.
Every report and story in this issue is deep, incisive and instructive. Buy it, borrow it, read it from start to finish.
