Granta Book of the Family - Softcover

The best and, at times, the most disturbing of Granta pieces relating to the family gathered together in this 412 page anthology. Raymond Carver, Mona Simpson, Geoffrey Wolff, Angela Carter, Mikal Gilmore, Louise Erdrich, Saul Bellow, Doris Lessing, Peter Carey, Bret Easton Ellis, and 12 other equally powerful writers tackle this most consuming of subjects. The Granta Book of the Family includes fiction, memoir, biography, and reportage, and is inspired by the relationships forced on us by the accident of birth-relationships that form and brand character and life.
