In 1996, Granta's first Best of Young American Novelists issue included Jeffrey Eugenides, Jonathan Franzen and Lorrie Moore. Who will match them in the new generation? This special issue features original work by the twenty-one writers under thirty-five who Granta’s judges (including novelists Edmund White and A.M. Holmes) have selected as the most interesting new young voices in American fiction.

Review:
"Sets the literary agenda for a generation."
"Call it 'Twenty of the Best' and get on with it. Blare the trumpets and wake the readers."
"Granta's hit parade is refreshing and eclectic, chock-full of strong, immensely talented young writers."
"Granta's once-a-decade literary beauty contest has already raised some hackles, and not just among those who didn't make the cut."
"Ranking writers like this is pointless; it looks like a publicity stunt. But read 'em and reap: Granta has produced a handy guide to some of the best current American Fiction."
"They say the purpose of the list is to get people talking. It's certainly done that."
"Best of Young American Novelists is full of good writing: personable, witty, sensitive, ironic."
"Will people be reading the magazine for the content or the controversy? Who knows? In any case, Granta deserves some kind of prize."
