Customer Reviews

One of My Favorite Granta editions

This issue has some very intriguing stories in it. One of the best is about a woman who cleans hotel rooms. Another is about the death penalty used with regularity in Trinidad. The photo essay on Sierra Leone is quite profound. I highly recommend looking into the issue and discovering the surprises for yourself. Maybe you are another Overachiever.
