Competition

What new American fiction have you been reading in 2007? What's being written about and how is it being written? What's being neglected? Did the Granta judges get it right?

We'd like you to tell us, in no more than 500 words, 'What's missing in new American fiction?'

The most interesting contributions will be posted on this site, and one overall winner will receive a full set of Granta (issues 1–97).

Email your answers to editorial@granta.com with 'Missing' in the subject line.
