New Writing 14 is here!
Woohoo! New Writing 14 is here! Well, at least in the UK first, on 8th June; then, perhaps a month or so, or more, here in KL. This time it's Granta who's publishing this edition, edited by Lavinia Greenlaw and Helon Habila.
You can expect to enjoy short stories from James Lasdun, Miriam Pinchuk, Romesh Gunesekera, Abdulrazak Gurnah, Roy Robins, Anuradha Vijayakrishnan, Chris Womersley, Kirsty Gunn. Desmond Hogan, C. D. Rose, Paolo da Costa, Nick Barley, Shereen Pandit, Douglas Cowie, Marina Warner and Hermione Lee;
poems from Paul Muldoon, Iain Galbraith, Stephen Knight, Carola Luther, David Morley, Sean O'Brien, Don Paterson, Greta Stoddart, Blessing Murairi, Carrie Etter, Chanjerai Hove, Paul Perry, Jamie McKendrick, Eoghan Walls and Frances Leviston;
novel extracts from Esther Freud, David Nwokedi, Charles Fernyhough, Benjamin Markovits, Maura Dooley, Jane Feaver, David Harsent, Maik Nwosu, Vicky Grut, Jane Rogers and Natasha Soobramanien; and
non-from by Michel Faber, Ogaga Ifowodo, Hermione Lee, Joan Michelson and Marina Warner.
I'm especially looking forward to enjoying the new pieces from Romesh Gunesekera, Nichel Faber and Don Paterson. I wonder what David Harsent is writing about in his upcoming new novel?
