Granta 105: Lost And Found

Description

In this issue, we travel to places on the cusp of staggering change, talk to people who have seen and done it all and rescue a few choice items from the recycling bin. From Ireland's Catholic priests once exported around the world and now under threat even in their own country to the hitherto obscure music saved from extinction via the vast exchange mart of the Internet, Granta 105 captures moments of both disappearance and rebirth in all their complexity and strangeness.

Alex Clark has worked on several national newspapers and has contributed to many publications, notably the Guardian, the London Review of Books, the Sunday Times, the Times Literary Supplement, the Observer and the Daily Telegraph. She was a judge of Granta's most recent Best of Young British Novelists competition and a judge of the Man Booker Prize for Fiction 2008.
