Literary meditations on friendship, loss, and memory

If you like thoughtful, eclectic writing that lingers in the mind, this issue could be a rewarding pick. Granta often gathers sharp voices and surprising angles, and the theme of dead friends gives it an intimate, reflective pull. It feels like the kind of book you dip into for beautifully observed pieces that are both mournful and deeply alive.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
