Publisher's Summary
Since the first ‘Best of Young British Novelists’ issue in 1983, Granta has championed the work of authors who have changed the landscape of British literature. In 1983, featured writers included Kazuo Ishiguro, Salman Rushdie, Julian Barnes, Martin Amis and Pat Barker, among many others. Subsequent editions have highlighted the work of Zadie Smith, Nicola Barker, Ben Okri, Jeanette Winterson and others. In 2023, they will introduce listeners around the world to a cohort of outstanding new British voices.
There will be an extensive publicity and marketing campaign for this Best of Young British Novelists issue, arranging international news coverage in the English-speaking world on announcement of the list, author tours to bookshops and literary festivals across the UK and the US, and radio and podcast appearances.
Current media partners include Vogue magazine (UK), The Guardian, BBC Radio 4, the Hay Festival and the Southbank Centre, with many more soon to be confirmed. They are also partnered with the British Council, whose team will be promoting the issue internationally: translating videos, interviews and digital assets into multiple languages and arranging for author appearances at festivals and literary events across the world.
